My wife and I visited the Historic District in Savannah for several days during our anniversary in August and absolutely loved it. We walked just about every square inch taking tons of pictures along the way. We passed by Firestation #3 and she was excited at an opportunity to purchase a t-shirt but we were in a rush and weren't able to swing back by to pick one up. I really want to get her a shirt from the station because it would be the last thing she'd expect to open up on christmas day and I know it'd make her so happy. Is there anyone that would be willing to stop by the Firestation and grab one to ship to me? I'm beyond willing to pay for the shirt, shipping, and some extra for the generosity for taking the time to make my wife's christmas extra special.
Hi everyone, I'll be visiting Charleston, SC on Feb, 2022. I want to have some epic photos with the live oaks, I'm debating between visiting Avenue of Oaks at Coffin Point St (2 hours drive from Charleston) and Wormsloe Historic Site in Savannah, GA (2 hours and 30 minutes drive). I have 2 whole days to spend in Charleston, please give me the advices on which location is worth the drive more. Thank you!
Note: I will be visiting some of the local plantations too!
EDIT: Thank you everyone for your advices! I learned some amazing places around Charleston that I don't have to drive far anymore!
I’ve been doing some reading about Baltimore historic districts, and it looks like only City-designated ones have an actual demolition review while districts on the National Register don’t—they only count for federally-funded projects. For people that live in these neighborhoods (or work on a neighborhood association), is distinction this common knowledge? If so, why hasn’t your neighborhood pursued a City designation?
Any insight would be helpful—here’s the Baltimore Historic Districts List—I was surprised at how few neighborhoods are actually protected.
