Preserving Charleston's Historic Fabric and Culture
Great cities are tapestries – their history, character, and uniqueness are the fabric from which they’re woven.
Charleston’s buildings and waterfront setting creates a deep sense of place, connecting us to our past while helping to shape our future. As preservation evolves from its traditional role of saving historic buildings into addressing broader issues like housing, urban planning, and tourism management, we strive to be a leader in our community. Only when we advocate for ALL of our neighborhoods, historic buildings, priceless environment, and diverse communities can we understand who we truly are – and make the vital decisions that move us all forward.
