This cool pink house is located on Chalmers Street, one of eight active cobblestone streets in Charleston. While not so good for your car’s suspension, local wisdom has it that riding down them is good to help induce labor if you are pregnant.
Glorious Trees
White Point Garden, one of the wonderful public spaces in Charleston, is full of beautiful Live Oaks. Have you played beneath their branches?
Higher and Higher
This house on Murray Boulevard is being raised up to help it better deal with possible flood waters. While raising the protective levels of the entire the Low Battery is in the works, it’s going to be a long (and expensive!) process. The owners here are taking action into their own hands.
Evening Glow
Unless you are walking west along Tradd Street, this beautiful house is usually not seen from this angle. As a one way street (going west to east), if you are biking or driving on Tradd you’ll usually just see the pretty flower boxes that front the street.
Colonial Beauty
The Philip Porcher House, located at the corner of Archdale and Magazine Streets, was built outside the walled city of Charleston in about 1773. Despite the relatively modest exterior, both the interior of the house and its gardens are gorgeous. If you are lucky enough to have the opportunity to see either, take it!
The High Battery
The High Battery is one of the most popular places to walk in Charleston. On one side is the spectacular harbor, with views out to Fort Sumter and the Atlantic Ocean beyond it. On the other side are the magnificent houses of East Battery. Have you strolled this promenade?
A Charleston Youngster
This beautiful scene, at the corner of South Battery and Lenwood Boulevard, highlights a wonderful Colonial Revival house — designed by the famed architect Albert Simons. For Charleston, it’s a relative youngster… built in 1935-16.
City Hall
City Hall is one of the buildings that makes up Charleston’s famous Four Corners of Law. Originally built (between 1800- 1804) as one of the first Banks of the United States , the building has served as city hall since 1818. It’s gorgeous inside — check it out.
Charleston Hat Man
Located on Church Street at the corner of Broad Street, the Hat Man is a wonderful Charleston landmark. First painted around 1892 to advertise a haberdashery, the Charleston Hat Man is made up of 16 hats of 12 different styles. Did you count them all?
Holy City Steeple
The Unitarian Church’s steeple has contributed to the Charleston skyline since 1852 (the construction of the main body of the church itself began in 1772), helping create the “Holy City” moniker. A beautiful church.
