Lines drawn today. Places that last a lifetime.
Where Design Meets Development
Where Design Meets Development
Smaller is Better.
We believe that design has the power to shape how people live, connect, and belong. Every neighborhood begins as lines on paper, but it’s through care, intention, and collaboration that those lines become enduring places.
We build walkable, design-forward communities that prioritize people over cars, connection over congestion, and authenticity over uniformity. Our approach is rooted in stewardship; stewardship of the land, the design, and the relationships that make neighborhoods thrive.
Each Line + Place community is small by design, crafted to foster spontaneous interaction, meaningful connection, and a sense of belonging that outlasts trends.
What we do.
Line + Place is a multifaceted land acquisition and development company based in Charlotte, North Carolina, serving the surrounding submarkets that make up the expanding Charlotte MSA. We specialize in the sourcing, entitlement, and delivery of small-scale residential neighborhoods, with a focus on design-forward, walkable, and community-oriented environments.
Our expertise spans site selection, due diligence, zoning and permitting, infrastructure coordination, and full project management through land development and builder turnover. We manage every step of the horizontal development process, from concept to construction, ensuring projects are executed efficiently, responsibly, and with a strong commitment to design integrity.
Through a combination of direct development, fee-based management, and consulting partnerships, Line + Place supports builders, investors, and municipalities in creating neighborhoods that balance financial performance with lasting community value.
Line + Place exists at the intersection of design and development. We believe that better design leads to better neighborhoods, ones that stand the test of time and strengthen the communities around them.
Our ethos is grounded in three principles:
Design with purpose. Every line drawn serves people, not profit.
Build at a human scale. Smaller, walkable neighborhoods create stronger bonds and safer streets.
Foster belonging. Enduring places are those that create care, connection, and community pride.
