Uptown Charlotte from Chantilly

Uptown Charlotte sits in Center City, about 3 miles west from the Chantilly street grid. From most of the neighborhood the practical routes east and north are Commonwealth Avenue and Central Avenue; Independence Boulevard (US-74) is faster toward Uptown and the southeast, and the Briar Creek greenway covers much of the same ground on foot or by bike.

Parking in this part of Charlotte is a mix of small dedicated lots and residential street parking with posted restrictions. On weekend evenings the Plaza Midwood and Central Avenue nodes fill early — arriving before seven, or walking in from the neighborhood, is the local habit.
