This earthbound angel, being lit by a ray of sun penetrating the shade from the beautiful live oak tree, can be found on Gibbes Street -- with the Parker-Drayton House looming in the background.

Flowers/Gardens

The Cistern Yard, backed by the beautiful Randolph Hall, is the epicenter of the College of Charleston. Founded in 1770, it is the 13th oldest country in the United States and counts three signers of the Declaration of Independence (Edward Rutledge, Arthur Middleton, and Thomas Heyward) and three signers the United States Constitution (John Rutledge, Charles Pinckney, and Charles Cotesworth Pinckney) among its founders. 

Houses/Buildings/Gates

You can find this pretty scene in Hampton Park,  the largest public park on the Charleston peninsula. The land which Hampton Park now occupies was by 1769 part of a plantation known as The Grove, or Orange Grove Plantation. Over the years it has been the home for some pretty interesting things, including the South Carolina Inter-State and West Indian Exposition of 1901–1902, which was visited by President Theodore Roosevelt.

Street/Park Scenes

The rising sun shining through the promenade rails along the High Battery, which protects White Point Garden from the waters of the Cooper River. Just beyond this point, the Cooper and Ashley Rivers join together to form Charleston Harbor.

Sunrise/Sunset

A beautiful view across the rooftops of Charleston, across to the Cooper River Bridge (well, the Ravenel Bridge, but we still call it the CRB). You can get this view by going up to The Watch, the Restoration's rooftop restaurant/bar on Wentworth Street.

The Bridge

This building, right next to Waterfront Park, is home to the Charleston Harbor Pilots. Dating back to 1890, the Charleston Branch Pilot's Association, has always called Adgers Wharf home.
