The mission of the Dilworth Community Development Association (DCDA), comprised of a Board and non-Board member volunteers from Dilworth residents and business owners, is to improve the quality of life within the community. By promoting and preserving the community’s architectural heritage, as well as future planning and developmental, the DCDA plays a large part in making the Dilworth community a great place to live in the Charlotte NC real estate market.
Homes in Dilworth reflect the two different architectural sections. Frame Bungalows from the 1910s and later brick Bungalows, Colonial Revivals and Tudor Revival cottages from the 1920s are found in the southern portion. Developed later, the northern portion has some large upper-class residences along Dilworth Road and has primarily 1920s homes with several more recent ranch houses. Designated as an Historic District, qualifying homes in the Dilworth district of Charlotte are eligible to receive state tax credits for historic preservation renovations.
