One of three new apartment buildings that will complete the second phase of development at Charleston’s Courier Square, this five-story building will offer residences at the important intersection of King Street and Line Street, marking the entrance to the historic Lower Peninsula with a handsome copper-roofed corner tower. Shops along the King Street commercial corridor will activate the site; above, the building will provide four stories of apartments, many with private balconies, in a building that fits into its historic context. Red-brick facades are enlivened with fabric awnings at the shopfronts and bold quoining and patterned decorative brickwork, suggesting a warehouse office block of the type that once populated this port city that has been converted for residential use. Since the small apartment building as a type never took hold in Charleston during the twentieth century, this building and its neighbors will offer apartment dwellers looking to live in one of the city’s historic neighborhoods an appealing alternative to flats in older single-family houses or a unit in one of the large apartment buildings that have sprung up north of the Lower Peninsula. The design was reviewed and approved by Charleston’s exacting Board of Architectural Review.
