After leaving the East Morehead stop, the trolley crosses over I-277, the beltway portion of I-77, which essentially marks the border between Uptown Charlotte and South End. It stops next at the Westin Charlotte Hotel, Charlotte’s newest Uptown hotel.
The Westin Resorts and Hotels Company actually chose this location, which fronts on Stonewall Street, specifically to be able to take advantage of the trolley line and the access it provides to both South End and Uptown. The trolley stop is at a specially-designed entrance to the hotel, which has 700 rooms, a gourmet restaurant, and an outdoor café.
