About Uptown Charlotte
Uptown is Charlotte's central business district, organized into four wards around Trade and Tryon. It concentrates the region's banking headquarters, its major museums and performance venues, and both the NFL and NBA arenas within a compact, walkable core.
From Eastover the drive is typically ten minutes via Providence Road or Third Street, and roughly three miles door to door. That proximity is priced into every Eastover sale and has been since the neighborhood was platted in 1927.
