The Cherry Hill Historic District has it's origins in the early 1990s as a revival of the old JHCCO block club (James, Henry, Charles Cherry Organization). After years of increasing blight many property owners, businesses and even tenants decided that if change for the better was to be achieved they would have to affect that change themselves.

By targeting crime, contacting absentee landlords when problems arose with their properties and promoting home ownership through a series of affordable housing workshops, the neighbors of Cherry Hill did indeed, effect change for the better! We invite you to view our approach to effecting these changes and important dates in our HISTORY pages. There you can find out what caused our revitilization effort, how we planned, and how we got our name.

To see how our efforts affected our overall environment go to the VIEWS page, where you can see some wonderful before and after photos illustrating what happens when properties become owner-occupied. You will also find some general street views of how Cherry Hill looks today.

Enjoy our new site; developed in commemoration of our 20th Anniversary. This is Cherry Hill- the diverse and progressive neighborhood we call home.
