Projects under the CNIP are expected to be transformative, and help large, multi-neighborhood areas revitalize important business corridors, reenergize established neighborhoods, and capitalize on key economic activity centers. Funding for the Program comes from proposed City Neighborhood Improvement Bonds that will be presented to voters over the next five years ($20.0 million in 2014; $40 million each in 2016 and 2018; and $20.0 million in 2020 for a total amount of $120.0 million). The West Trade/Rozzelles Ferry CNIP area (sometimes called “The West End”) is one of five areas included in the CNIP. It represents several mature communities in a high-growth area west of Uptown Charlotte. Great geography, community pride and a long, distinguished history make The West End authentic and a place people want to be. These are also many of the reasons the CNIP area will be in more demand by the market as physical changes are made. People living and working in the community want to be included in the CNIP planning process and help shape its outcomes as a way to build new infrastructure and attract other investments to the area. Parts of the West Trade/Rozzelles Ferry CNIP area, especially the Historic West End, are already on the cusp of transformation through investment in infrastructure and economic development. The implementation of CNIP projects, planning efforts by consultant-hired architect Jan Gehl for the Five Points area in partnership with the Knight Foundation and Charlotte Center City Partners, the construction of the CityLYNX Gold Line, and large redevelopment properties like Savona Mill, are all working together to bring investment to The West End. This investment will undoubtedly bring change. It is important to ensure this change honors the community and identity of the West Trade/Rozzelles Ferry CNIP area as we know it now – and as residents have known it during their lifetimes. It’s also important to remember the West Trade/Rozelles Ferry CNIP area is very large. A three-day design charrette with the public generated 115 thoughts, themes, opportunities, projects and ideas for improving the CNIP area. Fifty-two were considered eligible for CNIP funding. Each CNIP eligible project was rated by the project team using six CNIP goals and five neighborhood evaluation criteria, and shared with the community for input at a Community Project orkshop.W Twenty-three projects highlighted in this document are seen as the most transformative, encouraging additional investment from the private sector, and the most needed by the community. Not all projects will receive limited CNIP funding. It will be important for the City to continue to advocate for The West End to find other funding sources and projects by which they can be completed. Most projects will require a feasibility study, engineering design plans and funding schedule before construction begins. Projects will happen for many reasons, including timing, partnerships, community input, available funding and economic development to name a few. Some projects in the right place at the right time will be more impactful than others. For these reasons, the summary document for the West Trade/Rozzelles Ferry CNIP area has been written as a playbook – able to respond to dynamic shifts in the market, project partners and investment. It is structured so no project has been forgotten, and at any point one may be ready to be implemented over another. Any of the projects eligible for CNIP funding can and should be championed by everyone in the West Trade/Rozzelles CNIP area, when appropriate.

  • Industry, Transportation and Education
    Industry, Transportation and Education The New South Development of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County Prepared by Sarah A. Woodard and Sherry Joines Wyatt David E, Gall, AIA, Architect September 2001 Introduction Purpose The primary objective of this report is to document and analyze the remaining, intact, early twentieth-century industrial and school buildings in Charlotte and Mecklenburg County and develop relevant contexts and registration requirements that will enable the Charlotte- Mecklenburg Historic Landmarks Commission and the North Carolina Historic Preservation Office to evaluate the individual significance of these building types. Limits and Philosophy The survey and this report focus on two specific building types: industrial buildings and schools. Several of these buildings have already been listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Nevertheless, the increase in rehabilitation projects involving buildings of these types has necessitated the creation of contexts and registration requirements to facilitate their evaluation for National Register eligibility. The period of study was from the earliest resources, dating to the late nineteenth century, until c.1945 reflecting the large number of schools and industrial buildings recorded during the survey of Modernist resources in Charlotte, 1945 - 1965 (prepared by these authors in 2000). Developmental History From Settlement to the Civil War White settlers arrived in the Piedmont region of North Carolina beginning in the 1740s and Mecklenburg County was carved from Anson County in 1762. Charlotte, the settlement incorporated as the Mecklenburg county seat in 1768, was established primarily by Scots-Irish Presbyterians at the intersection of two Native American trade routes. These two routes were the Great Wagon Road leading from Pennsylvania and a trail that connected the backcountry of North and South Carolina with Charleston.
