About Southside Homes
Southside Homes was founded in 1952 and is the oldest public housing complex in Charlotte with 394 apartments sprawling over 41 acres just outside of uptown. As outlined in-depth in a Charlotte Magazine article from 2020, Southside residents are often living in “survival mode,” acting on immediate needs and feelings instead of planning for long-term goals.
While many other public developments from this time period have disappeared, Southside Homes remains.
