Around Fourth Ward

The Fourth Ward has a nice mix of housing options for people of all ages. Families may enjoy living in one of the larger Victorian homes along one of the quieter city streets to give kids a place to play. Young professionals can take advantage of one of the newer high-rise condo buildings. The interstate borders the northwestern edge of the ward; those who work outside the city may want to live closer to the highway.

The southern edge of the Fourth Ward is home to some of the finest dining options in the city. The neighborhood's eateries include an upscale chophouse with a who's-who of diners, an unpretentious gastropub, and a few sophisticated cafes in restored Victorian homes.

The Fourth Ward is one of the quieter areas of Charlotte, but new high-rises are constantly going up in the neighborhood. Expect to see young professionals walking to and from work, kids playing outside, and people out walking or biking for exercise amid the charming setting of Victorian homes.

The Fourth Ward is home to some of Charlotte's finest restaurants, so the night could easily involve any one of those. The Charlotte Ballet's company of professional dancers presents five shows a year. The neighborhood also is home to a few wine bars and wilder late-night options where you can end your Friday.

Enjoy the neighborhood's greenspaces, like the three-acre Fourth Ward Neighborhood Park that includes a playground, walking trails, and water fountains.
