A rendering shows the proposed developments for the Uptown North Charleston project along International Boulevard between Centre Pointe Drive and Tanger Outlet Boulevard. The tall structure in the foreground is a proposed 175-room hotel. Behind it is a multistory apartment building and parking deck. The new Topgolf facility where land clearing is underway is in the background. The large, short, white-topped building was a proposed bowling center, but it is no longer part of the project. A second parking deck could rise on the site. Next to it are a series of retail and restaurant buildings. The L-shaped building at right center is the existing retail site called McCall Center. It is not part of the project. RealtyLink/Reveer Group/Provided
