SouthPark is a prestigious address that offers a variety of housing styles, ranging from 1950′s ranch homes in Beverly Woods and Barclay Downs to newer multi-million-dollar homes in neighborhoods like Quail Hollow, Carmel Park, Foxcroft and the exclusive gated communities of Morrocroft and nearby Seven Eagles. The Harris YMCA, located at the corner of Sharon and Quail Hollow Roads, is also a legacy from the Morrison/Harris family. Additionally, SouthPark is the second-largest business district in the state (developed primarily by the Bissell and Harris families), with over 40,000 workers. Impressive office buildings are spread throughout the area, including the alluring Rotunda with its dramatic fountains. Several hotels are also located in SouthPark. Some would compare SouthPark to Atlanta’s Buckhead neighborhood.
SouthPark Mall is known as the best shopping experience in the city, some traveling from far away just to visit this well-known mall. With over 100 fabulous stores such as Dillards, Belk, Nordstrom, Neiman-Marcus, Macy’s, Crate&Barrel, Pottery Barn, Ann Taylor, Tiffany’s and Finks Jewelers (just to name a few), you simply must experience SouthPark Mall.
SouthPark is home to a newer, upscale shopping plaza, Phillips Place, which also houses Charlotte’s Post Philips Place, upscale, furnished, gated rental apartments for those who need temporary housing. Phillips Place has a Dean & Deluca’s, the prestigious Palm Restaurant, Modern Spa & Salon and a host of other shops and restaurants, as well as a movie theater.
SouthPark is also the home of the new amphitheater which hosts Charlotte Symphony’s Summer Pops concerts, a popular evening event that are free to attendees. SouthPark also features their signature event, the annual Christmas tree lighting, which takes place on Thanksgiving Day in the early evening and features caroling and a visit from Santa himself. SouthPark is the home to several Fortune 500 companies such as Nucor, National Gypsum, Coca-Cola Bottling Company, Consolidated, Piedmont Natural Gas and J.A. Jones Construction Company. Maersk, Bank of America Mortgage, First Citizens Bank, and CSX have major divisional operations located in SouthPark as well.

Debe: Sounds like I need me a Southpark. I have written so many blogs about my favorite topics aside from short sales (shopping and shoes), yet I have yet to visit a mall with both a Dilllards and a Nordstrom. That must be heaven.
Good Morning Debe - I seems like southpark is a great community that functions like a small town. Most of us appreciate the convenience of a small town that's far enough away from the traffic and clutter of the big city, but close enough to visit the big city for major events.
Hi Debe...My Wife would like to Love in South Park with all stores handy...ha. Sounds like a cool neighborhood!
