About The Trust
The Trust represents one of the most exclusive residential offerings in all of Charlotte — a boutique Uptown building with only seven private residences and a single penthouse, designed for buyers who value privacy, discretion, scale, and uncompromising luxury.
Located directly on South Tryon Street, The Trust combines historic architectural gravitas with modern ultra-luxury living. Originally constructed in 1967 as a Federal Savings and Loan Bank, the building was transformed into a highly secure, low-density condominium address known for full-floor living, private elevator access, and rare resale opportunities.
Scott Russo of WeSellUptown.com has direct transaction history inside The Trust — representing the buyer in Residence 5A, the highest-priced residential sale in Uptown Charlotte history, and representing Residence 3A through three separate transactions. There is no Uptown building where transaction experience matters more than here.
