Uptown Charlotte is dotted with construction projects right now. The skyline is changing rapidly as new towers take shape and inch their way higher above the ground. But the first residential skyscraper to be completed is Courtside. Developer, Boulevard Centro tags their project as the tower that started it all. Completed back in March of 2006, the 16-story building offers amazing views of the city, a hip, urban setting, and complex architecture that is eye catching to onlookers at any and every angle. "Boulevard Centro did a good job making each side of the building distinct in architectural appearance," says Scott Hartis, a Charlotte-based Realtor® with [HM Properties] whose niche is the uptown market. "It seems like many developers tend to make a building either uniformly shaped all the way around a building. Sometimes they will make the front match the back and then the two sides match each other. With Courtside though, the front is very different than the back of the building."

The saying "going vertical" often used by builders defines the actual construction of a home or building. However, this terminology also explains, literally, what direction condominiums are taking in metropolitan areas around the country. Charlotte is no exception as the number of high-rises and mid-rises continues to climb. But what is fueling this trend? In Charlotte's case, it is not necessarily a problem of maximum density. The city is growing at a rapid rate, but space is not quite filled. Bobby Drakeford, Development Director with The Drakeford Company, explains why, "Right now, in some cities, there is no parking for some housing units and that is unheard of, of course, in this market. In some cities, there is on-street parking or parking controlled by third parties where building owners have to secure their own parking. When we start to see that, that is when we will really start maximizing our density."
