In the midst of questions about how best to handle growth and development in SouthPark, an office building on 2.7 acres adjacent to SouthPark Mall <\/a>just went on the market and could be redeveloped, according to a Charlotte Observer report.<\/p>\n The building, which was built in 1987 and has approximately 38,000 square feet of space, is located on Barclay Downs Drive behind McCormick & Schmick’s restaurant. The remainder of the acreage is a parking lot.<\/p>\n The property at 4401 Barclay Downs Drive was last sold in May 2015 for approximately $6 million. The law firm of Culp Elliott & Carpenter<\/a> currently occupies the space.<\/p>\n The city just approved a $125,000 contract with the Urban Land Institute <\/a>to help decide how best to make the space less auto-centric and a more pedestrian friendly area. The suburban, mostly residential roads around the mall were not meant to handle the traffic the increased growth has brought.<\/p>\n There are currently several redevelopment projects under way in South Park, including a plan to raze The Colony apartments to create retail, residential and hotel space.<\/p>\n The Charlotte office of Cushman & Wakefield is listing the property. The report did not state its new list price.<\/p>\n
