Inside A Residential Hub In Charlotte’s Historic South End

Linea, Charlotte, North Carolina

This 370-unit luxury residential development by Fogarty Finger fosters connectivity. Located in the city’s South End, a creative hub that was once a locus of textile manufacturing and millwork, the property abuts the Charlotte Rail Trail, sits close to a light-rail stop, and connects by way of a skybridge to a new luxury office tower with ground-floor retail and dining destinations. The interiors are similarly rooted in place and community, with numerous tenant perks and a decor that draws from the area’s rich history. In the lobby, woven textures and warm tones prevail, juxtaposed by quietly industrial elements: See the gray terrazzo reception desk, walnut-framed furniture, and soothing, neutral-tone fabrics. Art from local makers also makes an appearance, such as the lobby’s Eruption Series (2024) by Kenny Nguyen, a mixed-media piece made from dipping silk in marbleized acrylic paint and mounting it to canvas. The earthy hues continue into the apartments themselves, which range from studios to three bedrooms, some with private work/study nooks. The 23rd floor, with jaw-dropping city views, is devoted to amenities, including a coworking space, game room with LED rope–lit bar, moody sound lounge with a community record collection, and an outdoor pool.
