Welcome to "Society at 229" a membership based social club centered around the rich history of Brooklyn Charlotte and one of its historic buildings, the Mecklenburg Investment Company (M.I.C.) building. This is not just a club, it's an experience, a journey through time that will take you back to the early 1900s when the third floor of this building housed a social club, called “The Lodge” for leaders within the community to gather. Many meaningful conversations & collaborations for the greater good came out of this building.
Brooklyn Charlotte, a neighborhood located in the heart of Charlotte, North Carolina, was once a bustling community filled with life, culture, and history for African Americans. It was so large it was referred to as a “City within the City”. The M.I.C. was the center of it all, a towering structure that stood as a symbol of progress, innovation, and prosperity. It was a place where people from all walks of life would come together to socialize, to do business, and to celebrate life. The building was a reflection of the vibrant and diverse community that surrounded it.
`
And now, through "Society at 229" we invite you to be a part of a continuation of history. "Society at 229" is connected to the the M.I.C. and exudes the same energy and sense of preservation. This is an opportunity to be a part of something greater, to connect with like-minded individuals who share a passion for heritage, community and harmony. "Society at 229" is also the home of the Grooming Greatness Foundation (501c3). A nonprofit organization committed to Grooming Youth, Veterans & Grassroots nonprofits by providing educational resources to enrich and expose them to opportunities that will enhance their future success.
The founders of this initiative, Kevin and Monique Douglas, look forward to you joining in their vision of establishing a beacon of light with a standard of excellence our city has long been waiting for.
