Owners Hope to Expand Birkdale Village

The owners of Birkdale Village in Huntersville want to add office space, a hotel, apartments and expand the retail offerings. A development group made up of North American Properties, Jamestown and Nuveen Properties is hoping to get a zoning change that will allow them to change the current plan and build a $180 million expansion.

The Charlotte Business Journal reports the details include a 125-room hotel, 150 multifamily units, 122,300 square feet of office space and 26,715 square feet of retail space.

The office building, which includes ground-floor retail space, would be developed at the site of an existing Barnes & Noble store. The 150-unit multifamily building is being planned for the current site of Dick’s Sporting Goods at Birkdale Village. The hotel would be across from the office building.

Birkdale Village is currently 100% occupied and includes around 250,000 square feet of retail space, 50,000 square feet of office space and 320 apartments.
