Last year around this time, CharlotteFive published a guide to Camp North End. Despite a tumultuous 2020 amid COVID-19, Camp North End weathered the storm, growing its tenant list considerably. Now, visitors will find shops dedicated to charcuterie and plants; stalls serving Southern and Latin cuisine; and a place to cool down with an ice cream pop or craft cocktail.

Developed by ATCO Properties and Management, Camp North End blends Charlotte’s historic buildings with a bright future paved by local makers. And there’s more to come — Camp North End will eventually open the Keswick Platform, where seven pavilions will make space for more tenants. To continue to preserve the venue’s storied past, four Black architects will design the facades for four of these platforms, blending murals with carefully selected materials.

In addition to options to support small businesses through shopping and dining, Camp North End also offers socially distant options to engage with the space through its Skyline Drive-In. Whether you’re craving takeout from your favorite local maker or want to catch a movie, there’s always something to see at Camp North End. Here’s a list of what’s open — and what’s to come:

In Charlotte, N.C.'s burgeoning North End Smart District, Camp North End has been a Ford Motor Co. assembly plant, a site for the U.S. Army, and a Rite Aid distribution center. Up next for the 1-million-square-foot property is the city's largest-ever adaptive reuse project. Owned by the New York–based developer ATCO Properties & Management, the forthcoming mixed-use development will combine office, residential, and hospitality spaces with a retail corridor along the site's southeast side. For the retail corridor's Keswick Platform, a space that will contain seven pavilions for local businesses, ATCO wanted inventive façade ideas. In November, it launched a design competition for "young, up-and-coming Black architects in the Charlotte region," including architecture students, designers working in the profession, and solo practitioners, according to a ATCO press release.

While it’s hard to know just how much the commercial office landscape will shift post Covid-19, employers continue to grapple with the risks of returning workers to shared spaces. Common lobby areas, confining elevators, and shared air handling systems are out of vogue.

Camp North End, an adaptive reuse project just north of uptown Charlotte, North Carolina, is providing solutions for businesses with those concerns.

In June, developer ATCO Properties and Management opened nearly 140,000 square feet of office and retail in a fraction of the 76-acre site’s 1.2 million square feet of warehouses ready for conversion.
