SOUTHPARK NEWS – Major Phillips Place Face-Lift Approved by the City of Charlotte

The City of Charlotte has approved a major revamp to transition the old Dean & DeLuca building and parking lot into a fabulous, new signature Restoration Hardware.

Phillips Place 2019 — Phillips Place (SouthPark)

SouthPark’s Restoration Hardware at Phillips Place is currently housed in 8,850 square feet. With the completion of the newly planned building, Restoration Hardware will move into an enormous 39,000-square-foot showroom with an additional 4,600-square-foot second level restaurant & bar.

The incredible new Restoration Hardware building is expected to be the sister of the design gallery space which debuted in New York City recently. This is great news for SouthPark neighborhood!

If you thought the values were impressive of the homes that are walkable to Phillips Place, they will certainly go up with this new renovation in the complex. So, now is a great time to buy a condo or townhome in the area. Here are a few of those soon-to-be red hot communities:

The Restoration Hardware revamp gives us our first glimpse of what’s going to be an enormous redevelopment of Phillips Place. The big name anchor flagship will lead the way to building-out one big piece at a time.

Lincoln Harris is the developer and has been planning this rezoning at Phillips Place since late 2017. The approved development plan includes up to 211,000 square feet of commercial uses, an up-to-130-room hotel and associated uses, 40,000 square feet of theater space and an additional 32 residential units. There is an option for unused commercial space to be converted to a maximum of 82 residential units.

Hampton Inn & Suites has also requested an additional 4,000 square feet of meeting room space.

Another bit of exciting news is that the movie theater operator has proposed the current theatre space become a full-service theatre, offering drinks and dinner. This change would reduce the number of seats to 900, down from the current 1,700 seating capacity.

365 Things to Do and Places to Go in Charlotte – Village Tavern

365 Things to Do & Places to go in Charlotte – Village Tavern

Located in the Rotunda building in the heart of Charlotte (SouthPark), Village Tavern

Their mission: “To serve the best possible food, at affordable prices, using only the finest, freshest ingredients and to enrich the lives of each other, our guests, and our community. In other words to make a positive difference.”

What we love about Village Tavern – it’s not stuffy yet, not too casual either; the décor is quietly eloquent but, not too elegant either. Tables and booths surround the bar area with massive windows on all 3 seating sides of the restaurant – with great views. They also have a huge outdoor patio that is excellent on moderate days and is consistently ranked as one of best dining patios in Charlotte.

The ambience and the low noise level is something that we also love about the restaurant. Being a tavern & restaurant in one, with a massive bar area, we never expected the noise level to allow for private conversations but, we were pleasantly surprised.

Head Chef Mary Grace Viado boasts an extensive and impressive resumé with a multitude of honors as well as honing her skills in numerous 5-star restaurants in both NYC and CA. The steak au poivre (their signature dish), bacon-wrapped scallops, southern shrimp and grits, crab cakes and their specialty salads are big hits with the customers. Renowned for its scratch kitchen, the craft bar also draws quite a crowd. Village Tavern features an impressive wine list, offering more than 50 wines by the glass, craft cocktails that are to-die-for, as well as local craft beers.

Really, everything on their menu is excellent! There are many choices, so just about anyone will find something that they like. Prices are reasonable and their bar and wine menu are quite extensive. You can bring your own bottle of wine and their cork fee is minimal.

Over their 30 years in business, we’ve dined there for brunch, business lunches, dinners and private parties and have always had a wonderful experience. The wait staff are always personable and professionally on-point as well.

Parking is scarce in front of the restaurant but, there are plenty of adjacent lots in and around the Rotunda building in which to park. They could step up their handicapped accessible spots though – or police those using the few handicapped spots they do have.

Royden Neighborhood (SouthPark)

Discover the Royden Neighborhood (SouthPark)

Welcome to Royden, a sprawling 140-acre sanctuary community of 142 homes in SouthPark. Located just off of Carmel Road (between Colony and Quail Hollow Roads), the community was originally part of “Carmel Hills” and was created in four phases from the former Moore family farm. Phase I was built in the mid 1980’s with the final phase of the neighborhood (Phase IV), being completed in the mid 1990’s.

A touch of the ‘burbs’ right in the heart of the city, this affluent neighborhood with established homes on beautiful winding roads, is mere minutes from some of Charlotte’s top dining, recreational, shopping and entertainment venues. The commute to Charlotte Douglas Municipal Airport, Uptown, Ballantyne and Fort Mill is unbelievably short. SouthPark Mall is about two miles away and Ballantyne is about five miles south of Royden.

Talk about a transformation from city-to-sanctuary – as you drive into the community, you are captivated by the variety of beautiful homes that sit on private, spacious, well-maintained lots with mature trees that fill the community.

Until you exit the neighborhood, you really don’t realize that you’re only minutes away from destinations like SouthPark Mall and all that SouthPark has to offer, Charlotte Douglas International Airport, and some of the city’s top golf courses (including Carmel and Quail Hollow Country Clubs being the closest in proximity), restaurants, churches and schools (both public & private).

Royden has a very active homeowner’s association which provides a community directory with great information about local resources, local crime information and social events. If you have ever dreamed of living in a place where your neighbors become life-long friends, Royden awaits you.
