The Arboretum refers to the general area of Charlotte which surrounds the eponymous mixed-use shopping center, apartment community, office complex and medical park which opened in 1989. The shopping center is home to Charlotte's first Wal-Mart store, and the area's name comes from the abundance of trees in the area. The center of the neighborhood is at Route 16 and 51, and the community is bordered by the SouthPark neighborhood to the northwest, the Ballantyne area to the southwest and the town of Matthews and Providence High to the east.
The area is home to the subdivisions of Providence Plantation, Hembstead, Beverly Crest and Raintree. Since the early 90s, as with many other areas of Charlotte, The Arboretum has seen explosive growth.
