CHARLOTTE — The EpiCentre, located in tuptown Charlotte, was renamed Queen City Quarter on Tuesday by CBRE Group, which owns the 302,3424 square-foot site. 

WBTV reported the development will undergo several “significant” overall repairs, including maintenance to the courtyard, parking garage, patios, and roof expected to be completed by the end of the year. Developers also detail in the announcement that all public staircases and escalators will be renovated, along with new landscaping, lighting, and benches. 

“Queen City Quarter will transform the heart of Charlotte’s iconic Uptown into a vibrant corporate and family-friendly hub,” said Compie Newman, managing director of CBRE’s Charlotte office.
