Home to some historic cottages, industrial and commercial buildings, this area is the new ‘hot’ area for local businesses and technology companies. You’ll also find a bunch of restaurants and bars – Edmunds Oast, Lewis’s BBQ, Tattooed Moose, Santi’s, The Royal American and more… New apartment buildings pepper this area, and the neighborhood’s only condominiums are at One Cool Blow. A massive development is in the planning stages for the amazing property on the Cooper River on the far east of this area at the end of Romney Street.

PATRICK VETERINARY CLINIC
Voted best Vet in Charleston 5 years running, Dr. Patrick and son are wonderful with animals (with good prices too) – I don’t take my cats anywhere else. They work on walk-ins only, so time your visit accordingly! On Meeting Street at Addison.
SANTIS
This is a crazy quirky, delicious Mexican place that EVERYONE goes to – truckers, business people in suits, students, hipsters, and everyone in between. Beware their pitchers of margaritas – they are potent!, At the intersection of Morrison, Meeting, and Mount Pleasant.ple in suits, students, hipsters, and everyone in between.
