Historic Architectural Resources Survey of the Upper Peninsula Charleston, South Carolina. Final Report

摘要

The objective of this survey is to identify all above ground historic architectural resources in the Survey Universe that retain sufficient integrity to be included in the Statewide Survey of Historic Places. These resources include buildings, structures, objects, districts, and landscapes that have architectural or historical significance. We conducted this research and field work with several goals in mind. First, the project can provide information for public officials in the City of Charleston to allow them to make informed decisions regarding the impact of development and other public activities on the Upper Peninsula's cultural resources, and to set priorities for the protection and use of these resources. Second, because the Upper Peninsula's resources are overshadowed by Charleston's original historic districts, we hope that this project will generate additional public awareness of the significance of cultural resources in the area and their value to the community. The historical overview contained in this report can provide an appreciation and understanding of these resources. The results of this survey can serve as an archival record of the Upper Peninsula's historic resources at the time of the survey; this report contains an inventory of every site recorded during the fieldwork.
