Throwback Thursday: The birthplace of the Cherry Hill name

A monument at the base of a driveway leading up to the AMC Loews movie theater and T.G.I. Friday’s restaurant marks the location where the Cherry Hill name was born.

A monument detailing the history of how Cherry Hill Township got its name sits near the driveway leading up to the AMC Loews movie theater and T.G.I. Friday’s restaurant off of Route 38.

Since the late 1990s, an AMC Loews movie theater and T.G.I. Friday’s restaurant have sat on a hillside overlooking Route 38 across from the Cherry Hill Mall. Residents who recently moved to Cherry Hill may not realize the property these two businesses have sat on for nearly two decades is the same place where the Cherry Hill name was born.

Branching off Route 38 is a driveway leading up to the movie theater and restaurant. At the base of this driveway, tucked away underneath some trees, is a small monument detailing how the property was the birthplace of the town’s present name.
