110 East is a 305feet tall 23 story office building in South End Charlotte, North Carolina.[1]
The 2-acre site made up of 2 parcels[5] was purchased by Stiles Corp. and Shorenstein Properties in October for $21.5 million. The site is right next to the East/West Boulevard station light rail station. It will be the only office building in Charlotte with direct light rail access.[6] The building's architect, Hastings Architecture, coordinated with Charlotte Area Transit System to ensure a seamless transition between the building and the light rail station.[7] It will be in a very active area of the South End neighborhood that has a lot of restaurants and nightlife within a short walk.[4] The former parking lot was used for parking for the buildings in front of it that housed restaurants Tupelo Honey and The Manchester. The two buildings were included in the $21.5 million purchase. Tupelo Honey has relocated and The Manchester closed prior to the start of construction.[8] [9]
It was originally planned to break ground in mid 2020 and complete in the fall of 2022. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic this was pushed back.[5] [1] On January 12 the Stiles website announced the groundbreaking for January 26, 2022.[4]
The building will feature a total of 370000square feet of Class A space.[10] with 7000square feet of street level retail space.[5] Due to the size of the lot floors 2 to 10 will be devoted to a 914-space parking deck.[11] [12] The 11th floor will feature 8000square feet of amenities such as a 4000square feet fitness center, flexible conference spaces,[4] and a terrace along with a sky lobby. Floors 12 to 23 will be office space with 29000square feet floorplates.[10] [5] The Hastings Architecture websites states that the interior of the building design uses art to guide building tenants throughout the space and attempts to maximize the Uptown skyline views. The building is currently pursuing LEED Silver and Wired Certification.[7] The building is a speculative building, meaning no tenants had signed prior to the building breaking ground. Although Cushman & Wakefield, the company leasing the building, has indicated that several companies have called about the space and have toured the city.[1] The building officially topped out in August 2023. Also, during the same time period, Cushman & Wakefield says leasing interest in the building is picking up. However, no leases have been signed yet.[13] The building delivered in April 2024 without any tenants.[14]
