Architecture firm, restaurant join growing community of businesses at Camp North End

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A Midwest architecture firm is breaking into new geographic territory with the opening of a Charlotte office at Camp North End.

M+A Architects is starting out with space at the Hygge Coworking facility within the massive adaptive-reuse project just outside of uptown.

Lori Bongiorno, principal and director of the firm’s commercial/mixed-use studio, is currently managing projects in the area with new and existing clients, according to a news release. The firm says it is actively hiring for one local architect with a goal of growing the office to between 10 and 15 people in the next five years.

Also at Camp North End, local couple Greg and Sabrina Collier reportedly will open in November a Memphis-style juke joint named Leah & Louise. And as CBJ reported last month, Free Range Brewing plans to open an outpost there later this summer as one of several recently signed tenants.
