“After recently introducing a number of brands usually found online, SouthPark is honored to welcome Warby Parker’s second physical location in Charlotte later this year,” said Holly Roberson, the center’s director of marketing and business development, in the release. “The designer eyewear brand is coveted and well-known – aligning perfectly with our roster.”

The 1,240-square-foot store, next to Fabletics near the mall’s Center Court, is expected to open in late summer.

Warby Parker opened at South End’s Atherton Mill in 2017, marking the brand’s first bricks-and-mortar location in North Carolina.
