Did you join CREW Charlotte in the last six months? Or have you been a member for a while and need a refresher on CREW Charlotte and all it has to offer? Please join your fellow CREW members for a New Member Breakfast.  Meet members of CREW Charlotte’s Leadership Team and representatives from our many CREW committees to see how you can get involved! We will begin with a light breakfast and introductions during a welcome and brief overview of our CREW organization. This will be followed by informal networking and assistance with getting each of you established on the CREWBiz website.  If possible, please bring your laptops/tablets or install the CREWbiz app to your phone prior to attending along with your CREWbiz user name and password.  

    One of Charlotte’s most significant redevelopment opportunities is taking shape at the former Charlotte Pipe & Foundry site. The Iron District is envisioned as a 55-acre, mixed-use neighborhood connecting Uptown and South End, ultimately bringing together office, residential, retail, hospitality, cultural uses, and public spaces on a site that played an important role in Charlotte’s industrial history. At CREW Charlotte’s November luncheon, attendees will hear from three leaders helping shape the project: Tommy Mann with Trammell Crow Company, representing the development perspective; Rhea Greene with Trinity Partners, leading office leasing efforts; and Sha Rana with the City of Charlotte Economic Development.   Moderated by Allen Clark, the conversation will explore the vision behind the Iron District, how the development team is approaching placemaking and phasing, and what it takes to bring a transformational project of this scale to life. Attendees can expect perspectives on the evolving office and mixed-use market, tenant and employer expectations, infrastructure and connectivity, and the role of public-private collaboration in supporting major urban redevelopment. The panel will also look ahead at how the Iron District can strengthen the connection between Uptown and South End while creating a new destination for businesses, residents, visitors, and the broader Charlotte community.   $60 per member $90 per guest     Thank you to our Sponsors
