Paul Chatham envisioned his Chatham Estates development to be comprised of large residential estates along a grand boulevard. Although the development eventually saw an influx of middle-class homes, many affluent Charlotteans constructed larges homes on The Plaza. Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Van Landingham constructed their home, designed by noted local architect Charles Christian Hook, in 1914.
