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 marks 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.
