 Project Legacy PlansProject Legacy is a bold new vision for economic development in Union County that can transform our area economy and quality of life for many generations. It is a site envisioned to be the premier business park location in the Charlotte region for decades to come.  Click on map for enlarged view The project is an initiative of the Union County Partnership for Progress, an economic development organization with many public and private sector partners. Located in eastern Union County and the heart of south-central North Carolina, Project Legacy is conceptually planned as a major southeastern industrial and commercial hub with easy access to major highways, international and regional airports and established rail lines. Upon completion of the planned Monroe bypass, the western entrance to Project Legacy would be a short distance to I-485 and allow even faster access to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg area.

 Union County
is the fastest growing county in North Carolina, and home to some
of the earliest settlements in America. Our
region offers a unique blend of urban and rural elements, a productive
and competitive workforce, a strong public school system and good
public infrastructure.
Yet our county is also struggling to cope with the demands of rapid residential growth. Our tax base needs a much healthier balance between residential and non-residential tax revenue to protect the affordability and quality of the community life that makes Union County so attractive. |
