A Message From Our Board President
No matter where I go around town, people always comment about the buzz going on in the BID. The recent success of Holly Jolly Brawley, Fife Street Brewing and City Center Live all are making the central business district the place to be. We very much appreciate our property owners having the vision to reinvest in their community because it has generated real momentum. This year we will be starting on new public art projects, investing in streetscapes, and improving pedestrian safety along our streets. To learn more about how we’re investing in the future of Downtown Charleston, reach out! We’d love to hear from you.
