South Park or South Park Properties?

January 11th, 2010 categories: Charlotte Living

I was half asleep the other night but I heard that the South Park cartoon was turning 20. I can’t believe it has been around that long. I will have to say I still don’t like it and feel a bit insulted when I tell people I live in South Park and they laugh. The South Park I live in has been around a lot longer and is MUCH classier. I promise. I love it because it is 10-20 minutes from just about anything. It has the best shopping and restaurants Charlotte has to offer. Oh, and may I add that this sign is missing Neiman Marcus?

The area of South Park Charlotte North Carolina was established in the 1950’s originally as a residential suburb of central Charlotte. This region was once part of a 3,000 acre farm owned by a former North Carolina Governor. Morrocroft Mansion, which was the main house on the farm, is one of the areas most stunning registered historic places with a 14,000 square foot home in the Tudor Revival Style. Ownership of the mansion changed hands in the 1980’s but is still used as a private residence today. Real estate in South Park Charlotte NC benefits from the area’s bustling economic and retail activity.

What I really love about South Park is there is always something going on especially in the Summer. Every Sunday, you have to put your picnic blankets out early for the FREE summer of pops concert brought to you by the Charlotte Symphony. Then there is the Great Grapes festival, the Latin America festival, Beer Bourbon and BBQ,  The new Snow Park, Crate and Barrel, Wine Tastings on Wednesdays in the court yard, Cheese Cake Factory, oh my I could really go on. I just really love living in South Park.

So, South Park or “South Park?”  When you come to Charlotte, ask us to show you South Park, or you may want to spend a day discovering all the fun you can have there.
