Every time I turn around it seems Charleston appears on another “top” list. And, guess what folks… we’ve done it again. Our beautiful community has been highlighted by Outside Magazine as the “Best Big City” on the East Coast!! It seems the secret is definitely out. We’re among an impressive list of some of the nation’s major metropolitans… Atlanta, Boston, Minneapolis, Tucson and Portland.

The article reads:

“Culture is both old and new in this 337-year-old port city: Look for homegrown products like aged cigars and black tea, plus a burgeoning design scene and the new Art Institute of Charleston.”

So, how could one of the nation’s “Best Towns” not be inspiring? Just take a look around you and be reminded of how lucky we are to live in Charleston!
