What will Charlotte look like in 2030?

Proposing Charlotte, NC to host the 2024 Olympics provides the city with an opportunity to redefine its identity for future generations. Uptown Charlotte is defined by its edge, I-277, encompassing roughly 2.5 square miles of the inner city. Our vision for the Olympics in Charlotte rests on a core concentration of events and services that will better link its wards, interconnecting them with a pedestrian and transit Loop that will ring the city.

Establishing a new identity for Charlotte can be accomplished through strengthening Charlottes Uptown environment by expanding on current infrastructure as well as proposing new amenities like the Loop. Within the Loop, each of Charlottes wards will be enhanced to attract people to the city. The four wards will retain their individual character connected through the Loop, creating a path through and around the city, building on residential neighborhoods, and strengthening the urban core.

What if Charlotte hosted the 2024 Olympics? Could the additional infrastructure required to host the Games leave a positive legacy for the city to grow from? These questions were posed by UNC Charlottes Master of Architecture urban design studio, resulting in this proposal for a 2024 Olympic bid and post-Olympics growth by 2030.

After the Olympics, by 2030, increased density in the city center will promote a creative and sustainable urban environment, making Charlotte a viable city for future generations.

Design Goals Rooted in the 2020 Vision Plan

This proposal for the 2024 Olympic bid strategically implements and enhances many of the goals of Charlottes existing 2020

Vision Plan. Particular attention was given to Goals 1, 5, 6, and 8, namely: Urban Design and Sustainability, Walkable Full Service Neighborhoods, Interconnected Natural and Recreational Amenities, and Multi-Dimensional Transportation System, respectively. From the onset of the design process, concepts incorporated substantial new park space, transportation systems, pedestrian networks, and sustainable design principles.

Large-scale, iconic forms and infrastructure

were developed to give Charlotte a more memorable identity. Anticipating future population growth, substantial increases in number of residential units were added to all of Uptowns wards, promoting the growth of each ward as a unique Uptown neighborhood in which residents can live, work, and play.

The images below highlight some of the process design work completed by the studio that led to the proposed concept described on the following pages.

concept: the linked citythat will include the new Olympic Park and the existing residential area north of Third Ward. Various types of support infrastructure for the Olympics will be distributed throughout all five wards, bringing opportunities for growth to each of Uptowns neighborhoods.

In the diagram to the right below, Charlottes wards, including the new Olympic Ward, are outlined with a distorted version of the Olympic rings. The image of the Olympic rings suggests that the wards are already linked by

their adjacency, but additional connective infrastructure is proposed to connect the wards even better along their periphery (diagrammed as dashed purple lines). The Loop, an elevated local rapid transit line will encircle all five wards, linking all of the existing wards to the new Olympic Ward and to each other. Likewise, the Olympic Concourse, a proposed system of parks and pedestrian/bike paths, will link Third Ward, Uptowns entertainment district and cultural center, to the new Olympic Ward.

Of all of the design drivers for the Olympics and Legacy Plan, walkability, connectivity, and access to green space were always the main focus.

The concept of the linked city, diagrammed below, shows how the 2024 Olympics acts as a catalyst for development in Uptown, resulting in a denser, better connected, and more walkable city center. Growth is concentrated in each of Charlottes existing four wards, as well as in an additional proposed Olympic Ward

The 2024 Plan

In 2024, the major changes proposed for Charlotte are to introduce a combined green and transit Loop, Olympic venues, mixed-use buildings, and residential districts that accommodate various activities to engage citizens and visitors inside and outside the Loop. Anchoring the Loop with the new Olympic Stadium relies on existing transportation as well as a proposed elevated pedestrian rail stopping every -mile to create a rich, connected urban environment.

The 2030 Plan

In 2030, the post-Olympics strategy is to increase the density of housing within and around the Loop, providing a creative and sustainable urban environment and making Charlotte a viable city for future generations. Adding to existing housing sites as well as replacing Panthers Stadium with residential towers will help establish Charlotte as an attractive place for businesses and families given its balance of infrastructure with ample green space.

using existing local and regional venues

Regional VenuesBased on prior Olympics precedent analyses, Charlotte will take a hybrid approach to locating venues, creating a concentrated core of Olympics infrastructure in Uptown with certain other venues utilizing existing facilities around the region.

The Greater Mecklenburg County Area will be able to house a majority of the Olympic events.Existing infrastructure in cities outside the county (Rock Hill and Belmont) will host a few events that cannot fit functionally within Mecklenburg County.

The College CampusCentral Piedmont Community College American Legion Memorial Stadium

The American Legion Memorial Stadium will receive an upgrade in seating and a new canopy system that will highlight the Uptown skyline beyond.

The renovations will allow for larger events to take place in the stadium and give Charlotte a secondary large venue with continued occupation by CPCC.

Johnson C. Smith University Irwin Belk Complex

The Belk Stadium will receive a canopy upgrade over the existing concourse, which will be permanent.

The temporary concourses surround the stadium and will be removed after the games.

The improvements to the existing facilities will help to re-establish the stadium within the campus.

University of North Carolina at Charlotte Richardson Stadium The existing stadium is planned to be

upgraded by 2020 to increase capacity. A new skin will be added to the existing

facility in order to provide a marked sense of place during the Olympics as well as for the campus athletics in the future.

Suburban Landscape

Belmont

Lake Norman A new venue will be added for seating

and judge housing during the sailing and triathlon events.

The rural aspects of the area and the established facilities and abilities to host large scale endurance events allow this to be a perfect venue.

Rock Hill The existing Velodrome and the future BMX

Track that will be existing for the games will be upfitted in order to meet IOC Standards.

The citys connection will be freeway access through I-77 as well as a public bus option from the I-485 Light Rail stop in South Charlotte.

The rural nature of Belmont will be home to the horse park. This will be a large -scale construction project in footprint, but it will mainly consist of temporary concourses, leaving permanent arenas for the establishment of Belmont as a horse town by 2030.

County VenuesUS National Whitewater Center

Bojangles Coliseum

The USNWC is already prepared for Olympic events, as it is currently used as training grounds. With its expansive landscape, it will be able to remodel its existing mountain bike trails to become Olympics-worthy.

Temporary beach volleyball seating and courts will be constructed on the existing grounds, as well as temporary seating for the water sports.

The Coliseum will receive interior upgrades for the events. This will include floor upgrades and concourse upgrades.

Access from the trolley car off of Central Avenue will be provided from the trolley stop to the Coliseum.

The new Aquatic Center will replace the existing Mecklenburg County Aquatic Center and become a new hub for Charlotte Swimming, re-introducing the city to the national swimming community.

Three-quarters of the seating will be temporary and will be replaced with offices and a public gym after the Olympics have ended. This will allow the Aquatic Center to maintain capacity during the games, and change scale to serve the citys future needs.

The city skyline infiltrates the building through the prevalent, north-facing glazing system which serves as a backdrop for the swimmers and divers during their events.

The new stadium will be a large-scale, landform structure sitting within a programmatic hub for the Olympic games. The stadium will feature an in-ground feeling as it will be surrounded by a park ramping system allowing visitors to enter on any level of the stadium and transition directly into the park when exiting.

Sitting atop an exposed structure that completes the stadiums bowl appearance will be the Olympic torch, which frames the citys skyline. The skyline backdrop to the stadium will be prominently featured and become the symbol of the games within the context of the city.

Serving as the replacement for Panthers Stadium after the Olympic games, the stadium will be converted into a new venue for the Carolina Panthers capable of hosting the NFL Super Bowl and a new Major League Soccer Team for Charlotte.

Linking the Uptown to Olympic Venues through Green Space

The Olympic Concourse is a series of parks, pedestrian paths, and bike trails that loops through both Third Ward and the new Olympic Ward. It consists of four parts: the Olympic Park and Stadium, the Cap Park, the Aquatic Center, and the Cultural Concourse.

As seen in the green space diagrams to the left, by 2030, the Olympic Concourse will infiltrate the urban fabric of Uptown even more as green-lined boulevard streets.

The following sections describe each portion of the 2024 Olympic Concourse in detail, as well as the 2030 boulevard proposals.

A Stadium Wrapped in Landscape

The main Olympic Stadium will host track and field events as well as the opening and closing ceremonies.

The stadium is part of a landform megastructure, where the roof surfaces are actually a public park space. Green and paved ramps wrap up

and around the stadium to permit entry and pedestrian movement at a variety of levels around the stadium itself. A Loop station, three hotels (one of which will be converted to office space post-Olympics), and ample, stadium-supporting commercial space are integrated into the landform megastructure. There is also an indoor practice track, which two of the hotels will overlook.

Modeled based on the capacity of the London 2012 Olympic Stadium, the Charlotte Olympic Stadium will be able to host 85,000 spectators. The seating components will be installed in temporary positions for the Olympics to be reconfigured for the football stadium after the games.

Olympics Track and Field Stadium Transforms to Panthers Football Stadium by 2030After the Olympics, Panthers Stadium will be demolished to make way for new mixed-use development, and the Olympic Stadium will be transformed into the new Panthers Stadium

and will be capable of hosting a future Major League Soccer team.

Since a football field is significantly smaller than an Olympic-sized track, the temporary 2024 Olympics seating will be reconfigured to accommodate the new use of the stadium. The seating will simply be rearranged and structure

modified as necessary in order to maintain a capacity of 87,000 in anticipation of Charlottes potential participation in NFL Super Bowls. Additionally, by 2030 the hotel closest to the Loop will be converted into office space. The indoor practice track will also be converted to serve as the Panthers practice field.

I-277 Cap ParkThe concept of the Cap Park is to create a retail area that links South End to Uptown by providing ample retail, dining, and hotel programs. The Cap Park contains three blocks that make up a cohesive green space that extends to the new Olympic Stadium.

Along with a series of bike and pedestrian paths that occupy the outer edge of the cap, a water feature and open park space are integrated into the Cap Park design.

The green ramp that ascends to the top of theproposed mixed-use program provides views to the city and creates a unique pedestrian experience. Beneath the ramp are a series of retail spaces that front the proposed greenway, which will generate revenue and attract people from both the outer neighborhoods as well as Uptown.

main Olympic Stadium to Charlottes arts and cultural core along Tryon Street.

The concourse will add over a mile of pedestrian and bike trails to Uptown. The trails will be uninterrupted by vehicular traffic in the city center by bridging over Church and Mint Streets. Closer to the Olympic Stadium Park, the concourse will widen to include 4.5 acres of recreational park space between the

pedestrian and bike trails. At the opposite end of the concourse, The Green will be extended to include an adjacent surface parking lot, which will more than double its area and connect it to the Gantt Center.

Including the trails, recreational park space, and The Green expansion, the Cultural Concourse will add 17.5 acres of park and recreational space to Uptown Charlotte.

Connecting the Olympics to Charlottes Uptown Cultural Core

In time for the 2024 Olympics, the Levine Avenue of the Arts will be converted from a two-way vehicular street to a pedestrian- and bike-only concourse. The northeastern leg of the Olympic Concourse, the Cultural Concourse will extend from the new Olympic Park to The Green, and it will serve primarily to connect the

Cultural Concourse: Reinforcing the 2020 Vision Plan

The Cultural Concourse is in keeping with the 2020 Vision Plans sustainability goals (Goal 1). More than half of the concourse will be green space with plants and trees, helping to clean the air and mitigate the heat island effect in the citys center.

The concourse also reinforces the 2020 Vision Plans goal of creating Interconnected Natural and Recreational Amenities (Goal 6). The concourse will be a park-like set of walking and biking paths with two larger parks at

its end points and a medium-sized park integrated along the concourse itself. As a minimally interrupted set of trails, the Cultural Concourse will promote biking and walking between sports venues and the Uptown core along Tryon Street both during and after the 2024 Olympic Games.

By providing a direct pedestrian connection between the Olympic Stadium and the Levine Avenue of the Arts, the Cultural Concourse will also highlight Charlotte as a Premier Arts, Cultural and Entertainment Destination (Goal 4) to visitors during and after the Olympic games.

Boulevards: Threads for Walking and Biking

In 2030, the green part of the Loop and the Olympic Concourse begins to expand as a way of improving more streets within Uptown, allowing for more biking and walking areas and reducing the need for cars. These streets

boulevards: linking concourse and streets in 2030become the threads linking the Loop to the interior of the city and allowing continued growth. There are five street typologies, and each have variations based on the existing street width. Each typology has been chosen based on conditions around the area from the proposed residential, retail, office and mixed-use spaces.
