For Rob Bowman, president of Charter Homes and Neighborhoods, what makes a neighborhood isn’t solely the houses in it.

“What we find today is people think about the place that they live (as) creating moments and memories for very short periods of time, kind of unplanned, ‘let’s get together and do something,’” Bowman said. “That’s what we find people are really looking for.”

The idea of creating a “place” as opposed to a row of buildings, where residents and visitors can gather socially and live their lives as well as reside, has been a driving philosophy behind Charters’ two large developments in the Cranberry Township region.

Charter, a neighborhood and home builder with projects across the state, is the developer behind the Meeder complex, across the street from the Cranberry municipal building.
