About Eastland
The Eastland area is a large commercial and residential corridor in east Charlotte along Central Avenue and Albemarle Road, historically anchored by Eastland Mall (demolished 2011). After the mall's closure, the area saw commercial decline but is now the subject of major redevelopment (the former mall site is slated for a new mixed-use district). The population is highly diverse, with significant African-American, Hispanic, and immigrant communities. Healthcare access has historically been limited, making urgent care clinics critical for this community.
