A Community Rich in History

The land that is now The Palisades was originally owned by the Duke family and was used for farming and hunting. As Charlotte grew throughout the 20th century, the area gradually began to develop.

Development was temporarily slowed by an economic downturn. As the economy recovered, multiple builders became involved, creating several distinct neighborhoods and subdivisions throughout the property. This development helped shape the diverse and welcoming community residents enjoy today.
