New tower is the 3rd high-rise for Ballantyne in the last six months; amenities include wine fridges, sauna/steam rooms and a ‘dog run’
Developer Northwood Ravin announced Tuesday that it’s planning to build a 16-story luxury condo tower in Ballantyne that will be the tallest building in Charlotte outside of the center city.
The tower will be accompanied by a five-story building for a total of 212 luxury apartments. They’ll be located on Ballantyne Corporate Place next to the 11-story office tower by Northwood Office that is under development. These are across the street from the Aloft hotel.
It’s the third high-rise building announced in Ballantyne in the last six months. Besides it and the adjacent office tower, developers in July announced a 14-story hotel and office complex in Ballantyne Village.
Movin’ on up: Luxury apartments announced Tuesday will give Ballantyne residents high-rise living for the first time.
The 16-story tower will include:
a rooftop lounge on the 16th floor with full kitchen, private dining room, wine room and a “resident speakeasy.”
a large dog run
a 1,700-square-foot saltwater pool with private cabanas
a firepit
a health club with fitness room, cardio room, indoor spa, sauna and steam rooms
an onsite concierge
The apartments will be one- to three-bedroom units ranging from 650 s.f. to 3,800 s.f. Rents will be between $1,200 and more than $4,000 per month.
Long thought of as a suburban location, Ballantyne is evolving into a more urban area, with higher-density developments and, unfortunately, more traffic.
