Tradd Street Elegance, Charleston







Founded in the late 1600's, Charleston, South Carolina, is one of my favorite places in the world. I'm fortunate to have clients there, in the SOB area (South of Broad) and am looking forward to seeing the project published in an upcoming issue of a major international shelter magazine. I've always loved the charm of the battery and the south of Broad area, and wanted to share Tradd Street with you. Not only is Charleston known for it's culture (Spoleto) it's cuisine (low country) and it's history, it is also known for being a smart place to live. "Town and Country" featured the city in a very revealing piece years ago, and there is a definite core of old family names, quite aristocratic for this young country. Enjoy these shots I found on the web, featuring a few houses along charming Tradd Street, parts of which are considered to be part of the original walled city, from over three hundred years ago. Enjoy! DF *****
