Noted as the first factory in Charlotte, the history of Atherton Mill dates back to 1920. With its remarkable history, the revitalization of Atherton has brought a resurgence to the South End with exciting retailers and restaurants, such as Anthropologie, Free People, O-Ku, Living Kitchen and Warby Parker. Atherton has evolved from a South End retail center, to a top Charlotte destination for dining, shopping and living – confirming Atherton as the soul of South End. The center is undergoing a major development with additional new retail and residential space poised to open in Summer 2019.
