A new Main Street district could be coming to the University City area.

Developers are hoping to turn the Mallard Pointe Shopping Center on North Tryon Street into a student gathering place with businesses tailored to the University of North Carolina Charlotte.

The more than 30-year-old center is across the street from the campus and currently houses a grocery store, dry cleaner, and restaurants, among other shops. The redevelopment is a joint project of Withrow Capital and Cambridge Properties. They are hoping to split it into four quadrants with apartments, retail, and office space, among them.
