In 1956, Park Road opened as Charlotte's first open-air shopping center and has long been one of the most popular and storied retail centers in Queen City. Built on strong community values, EDENS has preserved the center's sense of place and close community ties, while enhancing the family-friendly atmosphere and diverse curation mix. Reflective of the neighborhood, the retailers include favorite locally owned Blackhawk Hardware, Suarez Bakery and Park Road Books. Complementing these beloved shops are a mix of fashion and dining with J. Crew Factory, Dot Dot Dot and Shake Shack. Park Road is an epicenter for the community and place that embodies the past, present and future.
