Every day we have an opportunity to make University City, Charlotte North Carolina a little better. We invest resources in shaping public spaces and planning for a better-built environment because we know that the University City landscape influences the way we live, work, play and learn.  We also put resources into inviting others to invest in this place, whether it’s a headquarters or home.  But building University City hasn’t only been about new development, new businesses, and new road & transit infrastructure.  It’s about building relationships… and building a community.

Great cities and towns have great centers and vibrant places.  Our work in the areas of planning and development, economic development and marketing & communications supports the continuation of University City’s growth as a business center anchored in innovation, a residential area with diverse and welcoming neighborhoods and Charlotte, NC’s epicenter for education.

We envision and implement strategies and actions to drive University City’s long-term economic vitality as a center for employment, living, education, commerce, and entertainment.

Our vision is for Charlotte’s University City to be a vibrant place that is urban in scale and design. It will be energized by transit and will be a popular and accessible destination offering diverse and unique choices for living, shopping, working, learning and enjoying leisure time. It will become a premier employment center in the region with sophisticated infrastructure and attractive amenities.

The organization concentrates resources in these three key areas: planning and development, economic development and marketing and communications. As a catalyst, facilitator and thought leader, University City Partners promotes public/private partnerships to create and sustain the economic vitality of University City.
