Neighborhoods

Just a few minutes north of the city center by car or LYNX light rail, you’ll find Charlotte’s arts and entertainment district, NoDa (so named for its main drag, North Davidson Street). Brightly colored murals, galleries filled with local artwork, live performance spaces, and more await in this hipster haven, which was once home to turn-of-the-century textile mills — as do ample restaurants, coffee shops, bars, and breweries.

The lively South End is known for its vibrant nightlife, with a number of craft breweries and laid-back pubs, plus buzzy restaurants serving elevated American and global cuisines. In an 1800s mill building, the Atherton Mill and Market has chic artisan shops, while the surrounding area is home to a number of fine art galleries. The Charlotte Rail Trail is popular with runners and cyclists.
