The turn-of-the-century Cherry community was platted in 1891 from farmland owned by John and Mary Myers, also responsible for Charlotte’s prestigious Myers Park neighborhood. Cherry was designed to be a self-contained bungalow-style neighborhood featuring front porches, a city park and a school with several early churches and tree-lined streets still existing. Approximately six acres of land in the heart of Cherry were developed into forty-one lots, supporting forty-three homes. The property sits less than one mile from Charlotte’s central business district, and is within close walking distance to popular retail and restaurants as well as the beautiful Little Sugar Creek Greenway.
