About this map

The Third Ward and Fourth Ward anchor the urban core of this 2013 survey, where a dense network of neighborhoods radiates from the historic center of Charlotte. Local geography is defined by the winding paths of Little Sugar Cr and Briar Cr, which carve through established communities such as Elizabeth, Chantilly, and Eastover. The transition from the industrial and transportation-heavy corridors near the Norfolk Southern tracks to the residential developments of Sherwood Forest and Lansdowne illustrates the city's significant expansion.

Neighborhood identity is highly localized, with distinct areas like Biddleville, Wesley Heights, and North Charlotte retaining their individual labels amidst the growing urban sprawl. To the east and south, large green spaces such as the Eastwood Golf Course and Meadow Brook Golf Course provide breaks in the residential grid. This survey provides a precise record of Charlotte's modern infrastructure, from the high-capacity I-277 loop to the quieter lanes of Old Providence.
