11 Nov 08 Lowcountry News: More Stores in North Charleston?
The hot talk around the lowcountry right now is about the proposed new development on the swampland at the intersection of I-26 and US-78.
A 300 acre complex housing retailers, restaurants, hotels, offices, a supermarket, and a movie theater. If it is all built as planned it will be about three times the size of Centre Pointe outlet center near the North Charleston Coliseum.
It could be a gamble, given the current state of the economy, but of course, that won’t last for ever. What is in question is, even when the economy is racing ahead once more, does Charleston really need any more stores?
What would perhaps be more useful are more stores that are easily accessible to those without a car, and who don’t live on a bus route.
