Broad Street is one of the significant cross-peninsula thoroughfares in Charleston. It also acts as the boundary between the SOBs (South of Broad) and the SNOBs (Slightly North of Broad) areas. In the middle of this block is a wonderful old bar and restaurant (with a fantastic courtyard area) called The Blind Tiger.
It is named this after the speakeasy clubs which opened up in defiance of the Dispensary Act in 1893 — that heavily taxed the sales of liquor. To gain access to the clubs you had to pay a fee to see the mythical Blind Tiger.
