Other than a geography issue where the lot slopes down into the stores, which makes parking…read moreshopping carts a challenge, this is a neat little strip mall. Harris Teeter is the main anchor and we also have a chain hair salon, dry cleaner, coffee shop, karate studio, dentist, pizza and Chinese. The parking lot is in good condition and there appear to be plenty of street lights. At this time, the center is "fully leased" according to the management company's website.

This smaller strip mall is along Griffith Street between I-77 and downtown Davidson. There's not…read moremuch here but it is in good condition. Traffic along Griffith is not busy so making the turn to get into the parking lot is easy. Small grocery store, cinema, dry cleaner, tanning salon, nail salon and a restaurant. The parking lot is in good condition and the structure looks good. [Review 12635 overall, 2427 of 2019.]

A shopping center of mostly big box stores, you'll find the Walmart Supercenter opposite a Sam's…read moreClub along with Kohl's and Hobby Lobby. The whole place has that familiar highway-adjacent retail rhythm where people are constantly coming and going. Some fast food including McDonald's and Taco Bell plus a Bank of America branch. The Holiday Inn Express is close enough. The layout is spread out but not confusing and everything is built around wide lots and long sightlines that make it easy to hop from one to the next without needing to loop around. The center is directly next to I-85 so there is a lot of transient traffic and a quick escape so be especially aware of your surroundings and people walking towards you in the parking lot. You'll get a mix of locals running errands and travelers stopping for supplies and that blend makes the lot feel a little unpredictable at times. It's not a bad place to shop, it's just one of those highway-side centers where keeping your eyes out of your phone makes the experience smoother.

This small strip mall is located just off I-77 and is easily accessible with a traffic light at…read moreCatawba. It has a large parking lot, which was super helpful as I was here with the RV to meet with a guy about doing some work to the interior. Dragon Buffet (temporarily closed), Subway, Dollar Tree, Gold's Gym, a bank and a Wendy's (that is drive-through only and my van wouldn't fit). The parking lot has lighting and an exit direct onto Catawba. [Review 17299 overall - 3287 in North Carolina - 817 of 2022.]

On Rea Road, sandwiched between I-485 and Ballantyne Commons Parkway, this is a large shopping…read moreplaza. I've been here a bunch of times so I'm surprised that it managed to miss my reviews until now. Anchored by the Target in the center, the top end has the Regal cinema that used to draw a crowd but in the post-COVID era, who knows. Michaels, Ulta, GameStop, Harris Teeter are the main tenants in the big building but there are other structures that have professional offices, sporting goods, vitamins and supplements, restaurants, bubble tea and clothing. I think there are three Starbucks locations here plus fast food Wendy's, Chick-Fil-A, Firebirds, Smashburger, Nothing but Noodles and banks. The driving routes do a good job of keeping the higher speed traffic away from the areas where people are walking, so that's a good thing. And at Christmas time, this place is a zoo.

She's very uneducated, and it really shows in the tone and words of her voice. I do not think she should be so rude to employees and customers too. The "Managers" love her domineering demeanor, and I've seen them encourage it! There are no helpful or courteous management staff at this store

Recent addition, Bad Daddy's Burger Bar ups the "yay" factor in terms of good dining choices. During the summer there is live music at the Village center by the fountain. We like to get one of the outdoor seats on Dressler's patio and enjoy some drinks and apps while we listen. Come on down or up or over and enjoy :)

I think the District Exchange issues a great addition to Concord. With several small business…read moreinside it's a great place to shop and eat. I love the vibe here. I really hope the District Exchange will be a huge success. The one negative - It lacks good signage outside. One can easily walk by and not realize all that is inside. While it has the District Exchange sign outside it is dark against brick. Only a small sign shows the businesses inside. This place deserves a big inviting sign so more customers see what's inside!

What's cool is that this is where the original South End HT stood nearly 30 years ago. How cool is that? Other shops in the plaze include Hollar & Dash, Nekter Juice Bar, Star Cleaners and The Waterman, which is a cool oyster bar with a rooftop space that has a view of the Uptown skyline. Lots of parking here, decent lighting and it's close to the New Bern Blue Line Station. Access to South Blvd can be a challenge during busier times so you may want to exit onto Poindexter where there is a traffic light. [Review 12249 overall, 2033 of 2019.]
