Check out Charlotte’s new crop of apartment towers – and how much rent costs there
Developers in Charlotte haven’t built a new condo tower since the recession, but they’re still churning out high-priced luxury apartment towers.
These tend to be the most expensive rentals in the city, largely because of their high construction costs, premium land prices and over-the-top amenities. Two apartment towers opened in Charlotte this year, two more are under construction and at least one is on the drawing books.
Here’s a look at the new apartment towers in Charlotte and how much it would cost you to live there.
