Plaza Midwood is adding more players to its roster of options for dining, retail, and wellness. And they’ll be found in the heart of one of Charlotte’s most eclectic neighborhoods.

The Commonwealth, an upcoming 12-acre, mixed-use development located at Central and Pecan avenues, will gain four new tenants: Sweetgreen, Bartaco, Sweathouz, and sugaringLA.

Sweetgreen, a Los-Angeles-based fast-casual restaurant serving salads and grain bowls, is slated to open by the end of the year, marking its third location in Charlotte.

Anyone craving a more savory meal can visit Bartaco, a laid-back Mexican eatery dishing up tacos, rice bowls, and cocktails with a location now open at Birkdale Village in Huntersville.

Wellness advocates can rejuvenate with a cold plunge or feel the heat of an infrared sauna at Sweathouz or receive organic skincare visiting sugaringLA.

All these spots are joining the party with Commonwealth’s fellow tenants already announced, including Japanese restaurant Uchi by James Beard award-winning chef Tyson Cole, plus Van Leeuwen Ice Cream, The Salty Donut, and Yonder Yoga.

Commonwealth’s tenants will all be connected thanks to an upcoming walkable main street offering a scenic channel to ample green space, impressive rooftop views of the nearby Uptown skyline, and easy access to Plaza’s collection of cafes, award-winning restaurants, breweries, and boutiques.

Interested in moving closer to the action? The Rowe Apartments is now open, offering a luxury residential community with 300+ units boasting modern amenities with views of an ever-growing Queen City hub outside the window.
