Providence Group Capital is developing an eight-story project called The Rudisill in Wilmore at 1501 S. Mint St.

What’s happening: The eight-story building will include two underground levels for parking. The first floor will house parking and retail, while the remaining seven floors will be either office, apartments or a hotel. 
  • ODA Architecture is the architect on the project.
Why it matters: Providence Group Capital purchased four sites in the South End area earlier this month, and with that another wave of development sweeps across the South End/Wilmore area.
Flashback: The project name pays homage to the Rudisill gold mine near the site.
  • There were 700 gold mines in the Carolinas. The Rudisill and the St. Catherine, near Morehead and Graham streets, were among the most prominent.
  • The city’s mines brought the U.S. Treasury to place a branch of the federal mint in Charlotte in 1835, which led to Charlotte establishing itself as a banking town
What’s next: They have not laid out a timeline for the project.
