CHARLOTTE — Ballantyne could soon look a lot different if the Charlotte City Council decides to give the green light on a new multi-million-dollar project.
The 500-acre Ballantyne Reimagined Project would include a park, apartments, new shops, restaurants and an amphitheater.

The developer is seeking a combined $42.5 million from the city and county.
The city said over the project's 12 years, there could be $1.5 billion worth of private investments.
The developer is also committing to 260 affordable housing units. The proposal originally only called for 160.
In the video at the top of this webpage, government reporter Joe Bruno shows what you can expect to see and when.
