CHARLOTTE — A Chicago real estate investor and developer will enter the Charlotte market with plans for a massive development at a highly sought-after location between uptown and South End.

Riverside Investment & Development will close in December on 1111 S. Tryon St. The site includes multiple parcels, including those that house Midnight Diner and Uptown Cabaret. Construction on a multi-tower, mixed-use project will begin within a year after closing, said Tony Scacco, Riverside’s chief operating officer.

The three towers will include a mix of office space, residential, retail and potentially a hotel. The project’s total construction costs are expected to reach up to $750 million.

The Charlotte Business Journal first reported in August that Riverside was circling the site for a major project. Brian Dominick has owned the land for decades. Midnight Diner is relocating to a nearby site, Dominick confirmed to CBJ’s Jennifer Thomas.
