Picture this…it’s 1968 and you’re taking your High School Sweetheart out to dinner to Swain’s Steakhouse for the Best Steak and better yet….the Best Darn View of Charlotte’s “then” budding Sky Line.
Topping the list of the most exclusive, environmentally friendly, mixed-use communities that Charlotte has seen
in quite some time is the Griffith Lakes Community spearheaded by Griffith Real Estate Services.
A mainstay in the Charlotte/ Mecklenburg and surrounding communities for 100 years, Griffith Lakes promises to be the premiere mixed-use property in the area. Situated on 395 acres of pristine real estate off of Old Statesville Highway and West W.T. Harris Boulevard, Griffith Lakes is only minutes from major highways. Perhaps the most notable feature of the Griffith Lakes Community is the "Green Approach" of the developers. Of the 395-acres the community will occupy, 151 acres are designated Green Space with two natural lakes heavily bordered by natural woods. How is this advantageous to the environment one might ask? Well, the tree line serves as a filter and protects the water quality of the lake thereby promoting an eco-friendly environment. Additionally, the bio-diverse environment allows a peaceful co-existence between man and nature. Not to mention the use of Golf Carts will have a positive impact on emissions with less car trips in and around the community.
