Description

Join MidModSC, South Carolina's organization for the identification and preservation of Modernist architecture, for a walking tour of Downtown Charleston, SC! The tour will begin and end at the Dewberry Hotel on Meeting Street. The Dewberry began its life as the Mendel Rivers Federal Building in 1964 and sat empty for many years before being redeveloped into an elegant Mid-Century Modern themed hotel. The tour will begin at 2pm and we will stop at approximately seven sites built during the period of 1932 to 1970. At the end of the tour, we invite you to join your guide and other members of MidModSC at the Living Room, the bar at the Dewberry for some holiday cheer. The tour will be led by a certified Charleston city tour guide and architectural historian. Tickets are $15 and must be purchased before the tour. All fees will go to support MidModSC's efforts to obtain its 501(c)3 non-profit status. Questions? Please email us at [email protected].
