Where nature and urban coexist

The River District is a 1,400-acre master-planned community nestled along the bank of the Catawba River and west of Charlotte Douglas International Airport near the Belmont area. Designed and built from scratch, the River District is a unique confluence of the cultural richness you find in an urban setting and an intimate relationship with nature. Each aspect of the neighborhood is thoughtfully designed to be a center of energy and community gathering.
