Berrytown, Kentucky
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Berrytown is a neighborhood of Louisville, Kentucky centered along English Station Road. It is named for Alfred Berry, an early settler who bought a ten-acre parcel in 1874. The community was then and still is predominantly African-American, once composed of a large number of servents of the wealthy residents of nearby Anchorage, Kentucky. Urban renewal redevelopment was planned for the neighborhood in the 1960s, but eventually only expanded the southern part due to resistance by residents.
