The Tatum is a practical choice for renters comparing low cost apartments near Bojangles Coliseum because it offers one- and two-bedroom apartment homes at 6619 Yateswood Dr in Charlotte, with pricing and availability best confirmed directly with the leasing office. Bojangles Coliseum is located on East Independence Boulevard as part of the Bojangles Entertainment Complex, so living in east Charlotte can keep you within reach of events without needing to rent beside the arena.
Bojangles Coliseum matters to renters for a few different reasons. It hosts sports, concerts, family shows, graduations, and community events, and Ovens Auditorium sits next door for additional performances and civic gatherings. If you work event shifts, attend Charlotte Checkers games, go to shows often, or have family coming in for ceremonies, being on this side of Charlotte can be more practical than starting every trip from farther across town.
From The Tatum, residents typically use east Charlotte corridors such as East Independence Boulevard (US 74), Albemarle Road, Sharon Amity Road, and nearby neighborhood streets to reach the Coliseum area, Uptown, Matthews, and other parts of Charlotte. Driving or rideshare is usually the most flexible way to get to evening events, while CATS bus service along major corridors may be useful depending on your schedule, so it is worth checking current routes and times before relying on transit for a specific show.
The apartment mix here is simple, which helps when you are comparing monthly costs and space. The Tatum offers one-bedroom, one-bath layouts at 650 and 700 square feet, plus a two-bedroom, two-bath layout at 950 square feet. Current rent, move-in dates, deposits, and any specials can change, so the most accurate next step is to review live availability with the office rather than relying on an older listing.
For day-to-day value, the amenities that matter most are the ones residents actually use: clothes care centers, 24-hour emergency maintenance, open parking, courtyards, a resort-inspired pool, and grilling areas with an outdoor kitchen and large deck. The community is also pet-friendly, with pet stations around the property, which is helpful if you are balancing work, event plans, and a regular walking routine with a dog.
Inside the homes, expect practical features such as spacious walk-in closets, private patios or balconies, exterior storage, mini blinds, vertical blinds, multi-cycle dishwashers, and large cabinet space. Some features are available only in select homes, including wood-burning fireplaces, linen closets, vaulted ceilings, full-size washers and dryers, and built-in microwaves, so ask the leasing team to confirm exactly what is included in the apartment you are considering.
The honest trade-off is that The Tatum is not the right fit if your top priority is walking to Bojangles Coliseum or living directly beside Uptown nightlife. You should plan on driving, using rideshare, or checking transit, and event traffic on East Independence Boulevard can affect travel times before and after major shows.
If you want a clearer sense of the commute, floor plan fit, and current pricing, schedule a tour or contact The Tatum leasing office to compare available one- and two-bedroom homes.
