Construction is underway at the Meadows at Plato Price!
With the help of our Cornerstone Investors Ally Charitable Foundation, Merancas Foundation, Myers Park United Methodist Church, and the City of Charlotte, Habitat Charlotte Region’s new 39-home development will create opportunities for affordable homeownership in an area of Charlotte where the homeownership rate (26%) falls far below the county average (57%).
Named for the Plato Price school, the Meadows at Plato Price will sit in a historically significant area of west Charlotte. Plato Price School closed in the 1960s when desegregation took hold, and the land lay vacant until the City of Charlotte donated it to Habitat in 2018. Soon, the Meadows at Plato Price will rise up as a thriving community within this historically African American neighborhood.

Because we believe that everyone deserves a decent place to live, Habitat Charlotte Region is committed to building a vibrant and livable community at The Meadows at Plato Price. Key features include:
The Meadows at Plato Price will serve as the site for the 2023 Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter Work Project! From October 1-6, 2023, volunteers from all over the world will work side by side with partners, supporters, and future homeowners to build many of the 39 houses that will be part of the Meadows at Plato Price. This project will greatly accelerate the completion of the neighborhood and bring awareness to the need for affordable housing.
