Adaptive-reuse project to add restaurant, food hall at Optimist Park

Seoul Food (PAMAKA)

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A Korean barbecue restaurant in Charlotte’s South End will soon expand into the Optimist Park neighborhood as part of an adaptive-reuse project.

The restaurant recently signed a lease for a second Charlotte location, at 421 E. 26th St. Seoul Food will lease about 15,000 square feet and build a 12,000-square-foot patio that will front the planned extension of the Cross Charlotte Trail on the back of the property.

Seoul Food’s newest location will serve as an anchor of a larger adaptive-reuse development called Lintmen’s, spearheaded by Charlotte developer Pamaka. The project includes the former Lawrence Knitting Mills building, at 2315 N. Davidson St., as well as a 1960s-era garage just behind it, where Seoul Food will open its restaurant.
