Latta Place occupies about 16 acres within Huntersville’s Latta Nature Preserve.  Before its closure in 2021, it was a circa-1800 living history museum and farm which gave visitors a glimpse into 19^th century life in the Carolina backcounty.  Owner James Latta enslaved 34 men, women and children at this site.  As Mecklenburg County considers various proposals to reopen the site, we are seeking community feedback.

Capital Funding for this project has been approved by the Board of County Commissioners.  Consultant/designer selection will commence in the fall of 2023.  Stay tuned to this site for more information on upcoming public meetings.
