RALEIGH, N.C. — The downtown Raleigh skyline will be adding a new 11-story office building by 2014, with project developers expecting to break ground this fall. According to local reports, the Charter Square project has been stalled since the credit markets froze five years ago. But Raleigh-based developer Dominion Realty Advisors announced it is joining the development team and will help commit equity to the project. Dominion will help lead construction of the first of two towers planned for the site. The new $50 million Charter Square building, located across the street from the Marriott City Center Hotel, will encompass 225,000 square feet. The company has secured four tenants who will occupy about 35,000 square feet. JDavis Architects will serve as the project architect and CBRE is the property leasing agent. A general contractor will be selected this summer.
