300 South Tryon update
Groundbreaking has been set for the fall for the new 25 floor office tower. It will be the first new office tower since the recession. The last office towers to be completed were the 48 floor Duke Energy Center and 32 floor 1 Bank of America, both opening in 2010. Since then 23 and 21 floor residential towers have begun construction.
Recently Crescent has announced plans for a 27 floor tower and Portman a new 15 floor tower, but these could be put on hold to see how much demand there will be once this tower open in 2017.
