Huntersville’s Board of Commissioners have just approved one of the largest developments the town has seen in decades.
Yesterday the board overwhelmingly voted to rezone a 70-acre mixed-use development near the corner of Hambright and Mt. Holly-Huntersville Roads that’s being financed by NASCAR legend Joey Logano called ‘Town 1’.
Town 1 would be located at 11101 Hambright Rd, nestled at the southern end of town and is bordered by I-77 on the eastern side. The site enjoys easy access to Mount Holly-Huntersville Road and a CATS station outside the main Hambright Road entrance.
According to documents from the Huntersville Planning Department, the project would include at least 747 multi-family homes, a 7-story office tower, a 7-story parking structure, and 3 2-story commercial buildings with a total of 419,300 square feet of non-residential space. The overall project spans a total of 72 acres.
The project plans indicate a whopping 419,300 square feet of non-residential space. This includes an allocation of at least 126,000 square feet for office establishments, 96,500 square feet earmarked for restaurants and assorted retail outlets, and a considerable 172,000 square feet designated for warehousing purposes.
The project’s rezoning request was just approved by the Huntersville Planning Board and is now due to be considered by the Huntersville Board of Commissioners on June 20th.
What do you think about the new project?
