Second Ward lies directly to the south of the intersection of Trade and Tryon. It is the quadrant bounded by South Tryon on the northwest and East Trade on the northeast.
Second Ward is the location of Charlotte’s “Government District” and is the location of the NASCAR Hall of Fame. Many new developments are under construction or proposed. EpiCentre, a mixed-use entertainment and retail complex, is located on the site of the old Charlotte convention center. In the EpiCentre project, a high-rise condominium tower, 210 Trade, and an aLoft hotel will be located. The aLoft Charlotte hotel has recently opened its doors. Donald Trump proposed a 72-story project called Trump Charlotte which would be the tallest building in Charlotte. It would include luxury condos, a five-star hotel, office tower, and high-end retail.
