Housing vs History at 106 Coming Street | Charleston News

Charleston’s historic burial ground at 106 Coming Street, once holding the remains of enslaved people and the site of the former YWCA, is at the center of a heated debate over a new student housing project. The College of Charleston’s proposed 600-bed mixed-use building faces a major delay as the Board of Architectural Review demands deeper historical respect and more community engagement. Critics argue the design fails to honor the site’s legacy, while city staff require detailed material samples and a separate commemoration plan before permits can be issued. Balancing urgent housing needs with profound historical responsibility remains a complex, unresolved challenge. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
