Grand opening held for new Lake Norman community

MOORESVILLE — On Saturday, a grand opening took place for a new mixed-use community on the shores of Lake Norman.

The Langtree community in Mooresville consists of a new apartment complex and a few retail stores.

Organizers say this is just the first step of the project and more businesses are set to be built in the area.

"It's really to invite the community to see everything we've done in our first phrase. We have five phases coming," said Steve Well, president of Langtree Development Company.

They hope to build a new Doubletree hotel, aquatic facility and condos as part of the coming stages.
