The rezoning petitions also include Inlivian’s Gladedale Homes. It is unclear what the current occupancy rate is for the development. Northwood Ravin plans to renovate 100 units to preserve them as naturally occurring affordable housing.

Northwood Ravin’s plans call for replacing a portion of the property with single-family, rental townhomes and apartments. One of the complexes is Crest on Providence Apartments. The 115-acre site includes the rezoning of several housing complexes. “I think what you’re going to see with all the other retailers, is they’re going to have to up their game as it relates to more unique products, more local products, more prepared foods.,” he said. If Wegmans is coming to south Charlotte, Lempert says other stores will have to step up. Wegmans has four stores in North Carolina and an additional store is planning to open in Holly Springs. Lempert says Charlotte’s population growth, resident background, and culinary scene make the city a desirable market. A Walmart, according to Lempert, would not make sense in this area. Lempert says other typical stores of this size do not have a presence in North Carolina including Meijer and Hy-Vee. Levine did not respond to a question asking if Wegmans is the future store. A spokesperson for Wegmans declined to comment. “I would bet on it.”Ī source tells Channel 9, the Providence and Sardis area was pitched to Wegmans four or five years ago as a potential location for a new store. “Danny and Colleen Wegman have their eyes on you, Charlotte,” he said. Supermarket expert Phil Lempert of says he would bet the new store is Wegmans. The 100,000-square-foot store is nearly double the size of a typical Harris Teeter or Food Lion. The developers are proposing the return of a grocery store option for this part of south Charlotte. In the early 2000s, the Providence Square Shopping Center was home to a Harris Teeter. Is the 100,000-square-foot grocery store Wegmans? They will require a public hearing and a Charlotte City Council vote. The rezoning requests will be heard in the next few months. “Inspired by the long-term goals of Charlotte’s 2040 Plan efforts, these proposed rezonings will energize an area in need of revitalization and bring the idea of 10-minute neighborhoods to life, where people can access most day-to-day needs within a short distance from home,” Levine Properties President Daniel Levine said.

The rezoning requests consist of three separate applications.Īccording to a news release, the project says the revitalization will include replacing large numbers of obsolete units and a full renovation of others, as well as retaining the Moments of Hope Church in the old Harris Teeter space and an existing recreation/tennis facility. Ī spokesperson for the project said the three firms have assembled the property needed for the multi-phase development.
