Apartments & Things To Do In Dilworth 

A blend of classic elements and modern design, The Lexington lies nestled in the picturesque neighborhood of Dilworth in Charlotte. It is located near both the Lynx Blue light rail line, as well as dozens of trendy South End shops, breweries and restaurants. Yet because of the district’s beauty – which earned it a spot on the National Register of Historic Places – these Dilworth apartments will be hard to leave.

Developed between 1891 and 1941, Dilworth is known for its mature oak trees, easy walkability and historic charm. It was Charlotte’s first streetcar suburb and boasts a collection of late-19th and early-20th century architecture in the Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival and Bungalow styles.

The Lynx Blue Line light rail runs 19 miles from I-485 past Dilworth and Uptown Charlotte to the University City area with 26 stations, including a stop on Carson Street, just three blocks from The Lexington.
