Neighborhoods - Harris Chiles
Harris Chiles takes its name from two public housing projects that once anchored the community. Harris Homes, built in 1956, was demolished as part of the city’s plan to replace low-income developments with mixed-income complexes. It’s now the site of Ashley CollegeTown Apartments, where “life is a journey full of everyday adventures.” The neighborhood’s other namesake survived the scrub and got a makeover; it was rebranded from the John O. Chiles Senior Residence Building to the Atrium. — Meagan Mastriani
