Atherton Mill

Soul of South End

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 Fall 2019.
