Khan & Singh Property Management LLC finalized its purchase of the 0.55-acre parcel at 2732 Wilkinson Blvd. in April, according to Mecklenburg County property records.

Dairy Queen has been a fixture at that site since 1947 — back when cones cost a nickel. Lacy and Blenda Walters took over ownership of that shop in 1974 with a handshake deal. It’s remained a community staple, with few changes to the building. The iconic Eskimo Girl still graces the roof.
