## Character

        

New-construction subdivisions have replaced farmland at a rapid pace, while the South Tryon Street corridor has become a hub for warehouse and distribution facilities tied to the nearby airport.

      
    
    
          
        

## History

        

Named for an early Scots-Irish settlement and the historic Steele Creek Presbyterian Church, the area remained largely rural until residential and industrial development accelerated in the 1990s and 2000s.
