Developer buys land for apartments near Charlotte Motor Speedway

CONCORD, N.C. — An out-of-state developer has snagged a site near Charlotte Motor Speedway for its first local multifamily project.

On Jan. 31, Tennessee-based J.A. Murphy Group bought a 6.2-acre site on Trevi Village Boulevard for $3.75 million, according to Mecklenburg County real estate records.

The site will be home to a 209-unit, garden-style apartment complex, which is expected to break ground next month.

The site is off North Tryon Street, just over a mile from the speedway.

“J.A. Murphy Group is excited to be getting started on our first multifamily development in the Queen City,” company founder John Murphy said.
