In design
Our design for 167,900 square feet of mixed-use development on a prominent site on Market Street, in the heart of Charleston’s well-known historic district where the Ansonborough neighborhood meets the French Quarter, combines a five-star hotel above street-level shops and private residences.
The project’s signature building, a five-story brick-and-masonry hotel on Market Street, will be joined by an additional hotel building fronting Church and Anson Streets, designed to reflect the lower scale of the Ansonborough neighborhood to the north; facing Pinkney Street, three-story maisonettes encompassing a residential courtyard will recall the traditional Charleston “single house” with their use of brick, painted clapboard, and porches running perpendicular to the street. An east-west pedestrian passage of shopfronts maintains existing through-block access at the center of the site, anchored by a large plaza at the western entrance and smaller garden along the site’s eastern edge.
