The old Eastland Mall is now called Eastland Yards, and the developer, Crosland Southeast, has delivered its first project. Evoke Living, a 72-unit, 55-and-up multifamily community, recently opened its doors in East Charlotte.

It has one- and two-bedroom apartments and includes a mix of market rate and affordable units priced for residents who earn between 30% and 80% of the area median income.

Evoke also has 6,000 square feet of tenant amenities across all four floors that include a lounge and coffee bar, fitness center, computer room, screened in patio, multipurpose room and rooftop terrace.

The Charlotte Business Journal reports Truist Financial Corp. contributed $25 million to the project.

The overall Eastland Yards project calls for 470 housing units, including Evoke and a mix of single-family homes, townhomes, and market-rate multifamily, some of which are currently under construction. Also planned are a 5-acre county-owned park, retail and restaurants. 

Colliers has announced the completion of 135,600 square feet of purpose-built GMP/advanced manufacturing space in Canton, MA. The project was led by Jumbo Capital Inc. and certain funds affiliated with Apollo Global Management, with a Colliers team, including Kevin Hanna and Kevin Brawley, seeking a new tenant on behalf of the owners. 

Situated on nearly 10 acres near I-93, the property at 30 Dan Road offers a core and shell construction with features like 34-foot clear heights, four loading docks, and 6,400 amps of power. The building is subdividable to 50,000 square feet and is located within the manufacturing corridor of Canton Commerce Center, providing access from Greater Boston and Cambridge. 

“This purpose-built space is an opportunity to lease a top-of-the-line facility in a highly accessible and thriving corridor,” said Hanna. “The acquisition, conversion and expansion of this property will help meet the dynamic needs of advanced manufacturing tenants by offering space that aligns seamlessly with the sector’s expanding footprint.” The property underwent significant redevelopment back in July 2022.
