What Mecklenburg Mill is, and where it sits

Restored mill building that The Community Builders converted to 47 affordable apartments, part of the same mixed-income effort as the Johnston Mill redevelopment.

We have not confirmed a street address for this property. We place it in the North Davidson core area, one of 7 records in this directory there. That puts it inside the arts district as most residents describe it.

This is the part of the district most people mean when they say NoDa: the blocks of North Davidson Street around East 36th Street, where the mill buildings, the music venues and the densest run of restaurants and bars sit close together. Expect evening activity and event-night crowds near the commercial blocks; conditions change quickly from one side street to the next.

We publish no listings, prices, unit counts or availability. Those change constantly and belong with the property itself. For recorded ownership and parcel boundaries, use the Mecklenburg County POLARIS viewer and Assessor's records linked below.

Living in a converted mill

Converted textile buildings vary unit to unit: ceiling height, column placement, window orientation and how much original structure survived the conversion all differ within the same building. Tour the specific unit rather than judging from photographs of the building.

The Blue Line, freight rail and busy streets affect buildings differently. Visit at night and on a weekend, note train and street noise from the specific unit, and check the walking route to the station yourself.
