Boarded-up homes dot Cherry’s streets, which neighbors
say helps breed crime. They’re hoping redevelopment can
boost the neighborhood’s value while limiting the threat of
gentrirfication.

lived there for 34 years or more. The community started slip
ping as its people have gotten older. But the community itself
has been a mainstay for blacks just like Piedmont Court and
Earle \^llage.”
Patton’s family and friends also live in Cherry. His cousin Hves
in the house his 70-year-old father grew up in. He said many of
the people he knows have a lot of the same concerns.
‘What is really going to happen,” asked Patton. ‘We don’t
know what the price range will be; if we can rent ...we just don’t
know what to think.”
But in the face of all this unceiiainty, Patton has found some
comfort in knowing StoneHunt is black-owned.
“I see it as a positive that the developers are black and that the
community wants to do something,” said Patton. “If they don’t,
someone will. It’s good that those that have some attachment
will have the ability to remain in the community.”
Yet the element that has added in Cherry’s downfall must be
removed, somehow.
“People are not as caring as they used to be for their neigh
borhoods; they are just looking out for self,” said Patton. “I hope
they do some building and tearing down things that need to be
tom down...and get some corrupted individuals out.”
StoneHunt also wants to eliminate “individuals with less than
honorable intentions in the neighborhood.”
“If [StoneHuntl doesn’t make it attractive enov^h, it will get to
_ a point where others will come in and build it up,” added Patton.
“I don’t know what will become of Cherry, but I hope the folks
that do stay behind will take pride in the community.
