College Downs

Close to Everything
This area provides the best of both worlds with the buzz of the city nearby and the homey, quieter feel of a suburban neighborhood. College Downs is on the southeast side of UNC Charlotte’s campus and is right next to a lot of the action of University City. For music lovers and summer concert goers, PNC Music Pavilion is right down the road. Food and wine lovers will have plenty of options with all of the restaurants of University Place just a short ways away.

Being within walking distance from the center of UNC’s campus and library, and a quick drive or light rail ride away from everything else Charlotte has to offer is one of the perks of living in College Downs.
