Local sporting events is a big draw
The Third Ward shapes the western quadrant of Charlotte’s burgeoning Center City. Each quadrant is unique, with its own set of characteristics. An assortment of residential and commercial spaces populates the area. “The biggest draw for buyers is that football’s Bank of America Stadium and baseball’s Truist Field are here,” says Bo Yount, a real estate broker with Helen Adams Realty, who lived in the Third Ward for seven years.

Park is a major attraction
“Another major draw to the Third Ward is Romare Bearden Park,” Yount says. “It’s a beautiful place to spend the afternoon in Uptown.” Centrally located and walkable, the park, named for the Charlotte-born artist Romare Bearden, features two gardens, a courtyard with dining tables, an interactive musical playground and an illuminated waterfall with a city skyline backdrop. Conveniently it is across from the baseball field and a block from the stadium.
