Myers Park is
one of the premier neighborhoods in North America. Tom Hanchett, historian
at the Museum of the New South has called Myers Park Charlotte's finest
planned suburb. George Stephens developed the neighborhood on property
originally owned by his father-in-law John Spring Myers. John Nolen,
who later became a well know landscape architect designed the site
on which the neighborhood is located starting in 1905. 2005 marked
the 100th anniversary of Nolen's coming to work in Charlotte which
resulted in his planning our neighborhood.
In these pages, we have endeavored to show the history as well as
the current development of the area. Myers Park retains much of its
original flavor and we believe it is a neighborhood worth protecting
to the standard set by its founders when it was developed.
The Myers Park Homeowners Association Board of Directors welcomes
you and invites you to make comments or suggestions that will help
us serve you better.
