How Camp North End's developer sees retail playing out at sprawling complex north of uptown

Camp North End has seen some of its hospitality tenants exit in recent months even as office leasing at the giant adaptive-reuse development has surged.

Damon Hemmerdinger, co-president of Camp North End developer Atco Properties & Management, recently discussed with the Charlotte Business Journal the New York company’s commitment to the 76-acre site just north of uptown, between Statesville Avenue and North Graham Street.

“The business owners at Camp North End — and we are operating in the context of the larger economy — we're all pushed and pulled by that in different directions over time,” Hemmerdinger says.
