This beautiful piazza/camellia/wall combination can be found on Tradd Street, which is one of the few streets that spans the entire width of the Charleston peninsula.
Greenhill
Greenhill Street, which connects Gibbes and Tradd Streets, has a distinct feeling of a country lane — right in the middle of the South of Broad neighborhood.
Two Suns
The morning sun seems to have replicated itself along the southwest corner of Colonial Lake.
Stroll Stolls
Stolls Alley is one of Charleston’s great hidden cut-throughs. With the wall on your right, you know you are facing Church Street with East Bay Street behind you.
Tradd Scene
This house on Tradd Street is unusually set far off the street. Its driveway is guarded by two very mature crepe myrtle trees, which are the longest flowering plant in Charleston.
Good Morning Charleston
The sun rising over Charleston harbor illuminating the Schooner Pride in the foreground and the aircraft carrier USS Yorktown silhouetted in the back.
Cathedral
The Cathedral of St. John the Baptist on Broad Street is a wonderful building. One of its most interesting historical facts is that the spire of the steeple was added 120 years after the cornerstone of the building was laid.
Charleston Window Box
Charleston is full of wonderful window boxes. With so many of the houses fronting directly on the sidewalk, they often take the place of a front yard — so much love and tending go into them.
Illuminated
The afternoon sun is lighting up the flag and the piazzas on this pretty Charleston single house on Queen Street. The side porches on a single house are specifically called “piazzas.” Porches are the broad classification. So all piazzas are porches, but not all porches are piazzas.
A Little Charleston Humor
If you walk along West Street (which is all of one block long), you can spy this humorous historical marker on #7. While Charleston full of lots of history, it’s not everywhere. 🙂
