Just beyond the Rosemont neighborhood sits the 189-acre Magnolia project space with any planned development raising many questions in the Charleston community since the early 2000s

Will Magnolia be the Neck’s jewel or an environmental wart?

A former industrial site in the Charleston Neck area along the Ashley River is a step closer to becoming the city’s largest commercial and residential development since Daniel Island was annexed three decades ago.

Construction at the 189-acre Magnolia project, first envisioned in the early 2000s, could begin within two years now that owner Highland Resources, based in Houston, recently entered into a partnership with Portman Holdings in Atlanta.

“We have found the right partner, and they are spending a tremendous amount of time, effort and money to get up to speed,” Clark Davis, Highland’s CEO, recently told The Post and Courier.

Ambrish Baisiwala, Portman’s chairman and CEO, told the newspaper, “For us, this is an ideal project with an ideal partner.” The project, he said, is “a game changer” for Charleston.

When completed, the Magnolia project, much smaller than the 4,000-acre Daniel Island, could nonetheless have the same population — 10,000 residents. The developer plans to squeeze this between the Ashley River and Interstate 26, just below the tiny Rosemont community off the King Street Extension.

The land is known for three industrial sites: Koppers, a former wood treatment facility; and two former fertilizer plants, Columbia Nitrogen and Ashepoo Phosphate. They are currently managed under the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Federal Superfund Program with support from the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control’s (DHEC) Federal Superfund and Brownfields programs. Significant environmental remediation work has occurred at the sites, but not all of the work is completed, said Ron Aiken, DHEC’s media relations director.

For years, the plants polluted the soil with lead, creosote and other toxins. Lead raises concerns at homesites because it can cause neurological damage, especially in children. The sites have undergone a $75 million remediation effort to make the land suitable for commercial and residential use, Magnolia spokesman Jonathan Scott said. That work involved removing contaminated soil, installing a

Fire officials responded to a fire at 11:30 a.m., last Thursday in a parking garage at the Charleston International Airport in North Charleston. The fire was put out by 1 p.m., according to the North Charleston Fire Department.

A driver entering the parking garage reported a “burning smell” coming from his vehicle shortly after 11 a.m., according to an airport spokesperson.

The driver exited the vehicle and contacted emergency responders.

Deputy Chief Stephanie Julazedah confirmed two vehicles were involved in the fire. No injuries have been reported. The fire did not affect any flight schedules; however, visitors were redirected to the hourly parking garage and economy B parking lot while the garage was closed, officials said.

The first phase of the Magnolia project is expected to begin in 2023 on the south end of the proposed community near a 1,400-foot bridge built in 2010 as a connection from Heriot Street. The first phase is expected to include office and retail spaces and apartments. fabric barrier over an area the size of 34 football fields and placing on top of that barrier 13,000 dump-truck loads of clean soil.

Environmentalist wonders if site is safe

While DHEC has provided oversight of the cleanup, “some additional cleanup of these properties is needed to support the intended reuse,” Aiken said. Nevertheless, Jennifer Wright, professor of psychology at the College of Charleston and co-director of the Charleston Climate Coalition, asked whether the site is suitable for a development with a hotel, offices and retail shops. A soil cap on the site could deteriorate over time, she said. “So what does that mean to a community living on top of it?” she asked.

Q&A:

Journalist Jonathan Martin discusses America’s political crisis

By Herb Frazier Jonathan Martin, a national political correspondent with The New York Times, on Thursday in Charleston will discuss the crisis in the American political system and what should be done to pull the country from the brink of total collapse. Martin and his Times colleague Alexander Burns are the co-authors of a recent bestseller, This Will Not Pass: Trump, Biden, and the Battle for America’s Future.

The book is the authoritative account of an 18-month crisis in American democracy that will be seared into the country’s political memory for decades to come. With stunning, in-theroom detail, Martin Martin and Burns show how both political parties confronted a series of national traumas, including the coronavirus pandemic, the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol and the political brinkmanship of President Joe Biden’s first year in the White House.

Buxton Books, at 160 King St., will host a conversation between Martin and national political commentator and author Bakari Sellers of Columbia Thurs., June 23. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and the program begins at 6 p.m. Signed copies of the book will be available and Martin will personalize them. The event is free, but RSVPs are strongly encouraged via email: rsvp@buxtonbooks.com.

Martin spoke recently with City Paper about his book and political trends in America.

City Paper: What is the impetus for the book?

Jonathan Martin: My co-author and I

set out to do a campaign book on what we thought was going to be an extraordinary campaign. But then it turned out there was a lot more to this period than just one more presidential race. There was a cascade of events throughout 2020, including Trump refusing to concede the election. And then in the aftermath of Jan. 6, it became really obvious we had to go bigger. So we decided to do a history of the crisis in American politics … to capture these two parties governing at a time of maximum polarization.

CP: Have the Jan. 6 hearings in the House offered anything that has surprised you?

JM: I have been struck by the level of detail when it comes to the indictment of Trump himself. It is really clear this is aimed at making his culpability beyond question. I think the level of granular detail is really fascinating. This is laying the groundwork for an actual indictment of the former president or at least a political indictment.

CP: Who do you see as the best candidate to save the Republican Party?

JM: I don’t think they are going to go back to a pre-TrumpBushy Republican Party. They are going to be a more pugilistic, populist grievance-oriented party. The question is who is going to take that mantle of a Trumpist style. If Trump runs, I think Chris Christie and Mike Pence are more likely to run. They can do battle with [Trump] in a smaller field. I think

Ron DeSantis has real appeal, but he has not been tested in a national way.

CP: Do you think the country is watching and understanding the evidence in the Jan. 6 hearings?

JM: Is every American watching every minute of it like the Watergate hearings?

No. Are a lot of them seeing elements of it, especially some of these video clips, especially of the depositions or the actual Jan. 6 riot? They absolutely are. I do think it is a reminder of how grave that day was and it lays out in unrelenting detail the former president’s culpability.

CP: You and Alexander Burns just happened to be at Mar-a-Lago interviewing Trump when Lindsey Graham called the former president on his cell phone.

JM: What most people would do when they get a cell phone call during a conversation, [they] would let it go to voicemail or take the call somewhere else. Trump not only answered the phone, but he put it on speaker and let us hear Graham talking to him without Graham knowing we were there. Eventually he had the courtesy to tell Graham [that] he had two reporters interviewing [him].

That was such a revealing Trump move. Then he gets Graham to tell us about the power of the Trump endorsement. And [if] that’s not enough, [Trump has Graham] tell us what a great golfer he is.”

Hastie files $1.5M lawsuit against family over Magnolia Plantation funds

6

John Drayton Hastie Jr., patriarch of Magnolia Plantation and Gardens, has brought a lawsuit against his family for $1,587,514.67 plus punitive damages over funds he claims he is owed from the Magnolia Plantation Corporation.

The Drayton family has lived on the plantation on the west bank of the Ashley River since the 1670s. In 2003, then-owner and operator John Drayton Hastie died, leaving the management of the gardens to a nonprofit organization founded in 1985. Its board of directors included his two children and five grandchildren.

The suit was filed Jan. 21, 2022, in the

14th Judicial Circuit in Beaufort County

by Beaufort attorneys Kevin E. Dukes and Austin M. Blake. Attorneys representing both sides of the lawsuit did not respond to requests for comment.

A motion filed to dismiss the suit earlier this year was denied, according to court records. An official hearing is scheduled for Aug. 19.

The suit claims the defendants, Taylor D. Nelson, John Drayton Hastie III, Fernanda Moore — formerly known as Fernanda Bashaw, Dylan Nelson and Winslow Hastie “willfully and wantonly failed to seek distributions from the Magnolia Plantation

Corporation [on behalf of John Hastie Jr.] … in an effort to enrich themselves.”

According to the suit, the net income of the Magnolia Plantation Corporation in 2021 was $3,175,029.35, leaving John Hastie Jr., entitled to $1,508,138.94 as sole beneficiary of the Magnolia Preservation Corporation Preservation Trust of John Drayton Hastie Jr., and an additional $79,375.73 as a 50% beneficiary of a Generation-Skipping Overflow Trust.

Blotter of the Week

A downtown man told police his white 2022 Bintelli Scorch was stolen from its parking space under his residence. To clear up what is a likely misconception, this isn’t some fancy Italian sports car — it’s a moped.

License to steal A downtown woman reported to police that her apartment had been broken into and several gift cards (and her driver’s license) were stolen. Maybe the thief mistook the license for a gift card.

Now it’s just an almost perfect record A student resource officer at a downtown middle school caught a student with a plastic baggie filled with marijuana that police later determined to weigh 0.001 grams. You read that right, one one-thousandth of a gram.

Due to the miniscule size of the weed and the student’s perfect record (up to that point), the student wasn’t charged.

Someone call the publisher Officers responded to a noise complaint on the fifth floor of a downtown apartment building, where loud rap music was reportedly disturbing neighbors. All right, boss, come clean. Were you the tattle-tale? We know how you feel about rap.

Wright admitted she does not know much about the development. “But certainly if history repeats itself, [the toxins] will find [their] way into the water in ways we can’t anticipate,” she said. “It will be interesting to see how they are selling it in terms of hiding the fact that there is such close exposure to toxic chemicals.”

Scott said, during the construction process “if we have to dig beneath the cap for any reason … that soil will be remediated.”

The nearby troubled chemical plant

The property is also within a mile of the troubled Lanxess chemical plant where large amounts of toxic chemicals are handled on site, including trainloads of chlorine. The plant has had a series of mishaps over the years, including a minor release of toxic gas in late May 2020 and a June 17, 1991, explosion that killed nine workers and injured dozens when the plant was then owned by Albright & Wilson.

Wright also expressed concerns about air pollution from the chemical plant.

In the wake of the November 2019 release of gasses at Lanxess, DHEC conducted comprehensive air inspections on March 10, 2020, and March 12, 2022. A risk management program inspection was also conducted on Feb. 27, 2019. Following those inspections, DHEC didn’t cite the company with any violations.

Since the plant’s risk management plan was submitted in 2018, DHEC is aware of one accident that occurred within the past five years, Aiken said. The incident occurred May 22, 2019, and involved a chlorine leak that injured several employees. “There were no known offsite impacts,” he said.

The risk management plan includes a worst-case scenario that assesses the offsite consequences of what “may or may not” occur in the unlikely event of a catastrophic accident, Aiken said. The worst-case scenario document can be viewed by the public. Publicizing its contents, however, is prohibited by federal law due to the sensitive nature of the document, he added. A formal written request to DHEC is required to view the risk management report.

Fifteen years ago, Charleston developer Robert Clement represented the previous Magnolia owners, Ashley I and Ashley II. The 2008 recession canceled the project, but while speaking before the city’s planning commission in 2007, Clement said: “If a tragedy happens at [the plant], it is not a Magnolia concern or a Rosemont concern, it would be an entire community concern, based on which way the wind is blowing.”

Clement, president of CC&T Real Estate Services, is not currently involved with the Magnolia project.

Magnolia spokesperson Scott said the current Magnolia owners haven’t seen the

Lanxess risk management plan to understand the risk assessment or be in a position to comment about it.

Rep. Wendell Gilliard, D-Charleston, whose district includes the chemical plant, said, “I am surprised the developer didn’t have a comment on this most important issue! I’m quite sure one will be forthcoming because they should have been made aware of this report!”

The Neck’s long history

Scores of plantations once lined the Ashley and Cooper rivers in the Neck area. During the Revolutionary War, British troops fortified the narrowest portion of the Neck.

Similarly, during the Civil War, the narrowest portion of the Neck served as the battlefront and encampments for Union and Confederate troops.

For more than a century, the Neck area had been considered an important, if undesirable, place to work. Following the Civil War, phosphate was discovered on both sides of the Ashley, creating a boom for Charleston’s struggling post-war economy.

Eventually, as phosphate was discovered in other areas, phosphate mining diminished locally. However, the phosphate ore was still brought to the Neck for processing to sustain Charleston’s fertilizer industry. The Koppers wood treatment plant was also another major polluter in the Neck area.

Currently, the site is flat with an unobstructed view of the river for motorists speeding along the interstate. Over time, Magnolia is expected to drastically alter that vista. Some of the tallest buildings in the city, amid a hotel, shops, parks and a marina, are slated to be built there, Scott said. Before any of it rises out of the ground, however, the developers plan to create a 24-acre waterfront park as a public amenity, he said.

Scott said the developers have donated land to the nearby Monrovia Union Cemetery to expand it. It is the largest African-American cemetery along the river’s marshy bank. Highland Resources also has committed $500,000 for a community center in Rosemont, Scott said. Charleston City Councilman Robert Mitchell and the Rosemont neighborhood suggested the donation, he said. Rosemont, which has 320 residents, will be joined with Magnolia via the existing Hagood Street, he added.

Long-time Rosemont resident Arthur “Arby” Edwards, said the last time the community met with the developers was before the pandemic. Edwards, parliamentarian of the Rosemont Neighborhood Association, said he opposes the plan to connect Rosemont with Magnolia. Motorists might “get lost, and they will end up riding through Rosemont,” he said. “We used to be unknown, but now everybody knows about Rosemont.”

How to make your voice louder: Vote in the June 28 runoffs I

Views 06.22.2022

f you want your vote to count more than in just about any other election, you should cast a ballot in the June 28 runoff elections. Another reason: Voting is a fundamental duty for Americans to keep freedom strong.

On June 28, your vote will count more because of basic math: One in eight registered voters in South Carolina actually takes the time to vote in primary runoffs. In a regular primary, more people vote (about 20%), which dilutes the power of an individual vote in that election.

In 2018 for example, an abysmally low 20.4% of voters (621,841 people) cast ballots in the June primary. Two weeks later, only 12.7% — 385,254 South Carolina voters — made runoff picks. In other words, these voters had the ultimate say in picking of key Republican or Democratic candidates for the general election. Seven out of eight voters sat at home in runoffs. That’s simply embarrassing.

On June 28 in Charleston County, there are just two races to attract voters to the polls. For the low number of races, we have to assume low turnout again. But realize the importance of showing up. Republicans will pick a statewide candidate for superintendent of education. We again recommend Kathy Maness, a longtime advocate for teachers, to voters. As we wrote in a May 25 endorsement, “she has political experience and is a Republican with the kind of independence needed in the job.”

Democrats will head to the polls June 28 to pick a candidate to run against GOP U.S. Sen. Tim Scott. Again, we endorse S.C. Rep. Krystle Matthews, a local legislator who has

8

a great record of constituent service.

Looking back on the June 14 primaries, results point to a November showdown between incumbent GOP Gov. Henry McMaster and Democratic challenger Joe Cunningham, a former Charleston congressman. In congressional elections, U.S. Rep. Nancy Mace of Daniel Island held on to thwart Trump-backed challenger Katie Arrington in the GOP primary and now will face Dr. Annie Andrews, a Democrat, in the fall. Mace’s colleague in the Grand Strand, Republican U.S. Rep. Tom Rice, fell to S.C. Rep. Russell Fry, who was backed by former President Trump in a crowded field.

Charleston County Democrats gave the nod to Karen Hollings to be their candidate for register of deeds in a public spanking of embattled Michael Miller, whose effectiveness has been much criticized. Hollings will face Republican Bob McIntyre. In a surprise to many, S.C. Rep. Lin Bennett, a Charleston Republican, carried local precincts but wasn’t able to win when votes from other area precincts were counted.

In other Charleston County elections, attorney Larry Kobrovsky won a primary and will head to an East Cooper seat on county council as he has no general election challenger.

But veteran councilwoman Anna Johnson, a Democrat who got 56% in a primary, will face Republican Joe Boykin, who we endorsed earlier this month. Meanwhile, attorney Tamara Cunningham Curry won a primary to face longtime Republican Probate Judge Irv Condon.

OPINION

Queensland is a big wonderland of biodiversity By Andy Brack GLASS HOUSE MOUNTAINS, Queensland | The cackling from some kind of tropical bird just before dawn was so loud that I jumped up in bed.

It sounded like a nightmare come to life.

But this state on the northeastern side of Australia is anything but a bad dream. It’s a huge paradise filled with so much biodiversity that you can’t believe your eyes.

Two hours north of Brisbane by plane is the Daintree Rainforest, a protected park thought to be 130 million years old. It’s the world’s oldest tropical rainforest. There are more than 400 species of native mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and snakes. Trees and vines tower 200 feet in layers from the forest floor in this fragile ecosystem filled with more than 12,000 kinds of insects and 3,000 species of plants.

Just miles away offshore is a slice of the Great Barrier Reef, which has bountiful corals, fish and loads of other marine life. Off the coast of Port Douglas, we snorkeled and saw everything from Nemo fish — clownfish — darting in anemones to reef sharks, angelfish and green sea turtles.

Waters in this northerly area of the reef, which stretches 1,400 miles, apparently are still warm enough to continue to sustain abundant marine life. But remember how huge the reef is. It has 133,000 square miles of coral, which would fill the state of Texas.

The rainforest and reef are ecological sanctuaries. Both are World Heritage sites. And both are threatened by climate change, with half of the reef’s corals bleached and killed in recent years.

To see one of these natural wonders is thrilling.

To enjoy both in two days was, as Australians say a lot, “awesome.”

According to the Daintree Discovery Center, these two icons of biodiversity “seem like separate realms but together they make one of Earth’s richest and most complex ecosystems. The wellbeing of one depends on the other. The rainforest acts as a giant natural water filter reducing ocean pollution while most air carried off the Coral Sea by trade winds is stopped by the mountains and converted to rain.”

It is humbling to see these natural wonders and daunting to realize how they are threatened.

If there’s anything we’ve taken from this trip to Queensland, it’s that we need to nurture our Earth more and find ways to reduce impacts on the environment. We’ve also learned some other things: Sister-state relationship. Queensland has about the same population as South Carolina. In the late 1990s, the two states joined in a sister-

The rainforest and reef are ecological sanctuaries.

Both are World Heritage sites.

And both are threatened by climate change, with half of the reef’s corals bleached and killed in recent years.

state partnership, but it seems to have fizzled over the years. That’s a shame because Queensland is booming with investment and the Palmetto State could learn a lot from the Sunshine State. There are new skyscrapers and tunnels in Brisbane, compared to what we saw 15 years ago in a visit, while the countryside has good roads and all mod cons (modern conveniences).

Friendly folks. The people of Queensland are just as friendly as those in South Carolina. They, of course, sound different (think Crocodile Dundee) and use different words. What we call trash is called “rubbish” here. They have the car “boot,” while we have a trunk. They greet people with “G’day,” while our go-to distinguishing word is “y’all.”

Big place. It is a two-hour flight from Brisbane to Cairns — and we did not even get to the top of Queensland, which is 1.8 million square kilometers. That’s more than 22 times the size of South Carolina. Most people, however, live in towns along the coast.

Traveling opens one’s eyes to the world. We hope you can visit somewhere new and get inspired with great ideas to make South Carolina better.

What a gasoline junkie learned from going affordably electric

D

By Chris Dixon

Feature 06.22.2022

uring the height of the pandemic, my wife and I made a decision that today seems pretty dang well-timed. With our daughter turning 16 and needing a car for work and school and my wife still needing a commuter car for her job as an elementary school teacher, we decided to buy an electric car.

For my wife, the decision came easy. Even before gas prices skyrocketed, she was still pouring $50 into the tank of her 2008 Toyota Highlander hybrid every week and a half. She wanted to let our daughter take over the responsibility of paying for the Toyota’s gas and upkeep. In exchange, my wife wanted something she could plug into the house and drive around town. So we started looking at different electric vehicles, also known as EVs. I was, however, a bit e-skeptical. Despite my conservationist claims, I’ve been a lifelong gas-hogging car junkie. In high school, my grandad helped me rebuild a rare, fire-breathing Corvette LT1 V8 engine that we dropped under the hood of my 1973 Monte Carlo.

The gas gauge visibly dropped every time I floored the accelerator.

After that came a 1962 Cadillac coupe whose tire-shredding 400 horsepower, 390-cubic-inch engine funded Saddam and the Saudis at 10 mpg. I followed that with a rare little German-built Ford — a turbocharged Merkur XR4ti. In Europe, the XR4 was the most successful touring race car ever built.

Eventually, my obsessions shifted to ’80s-era VW campers, and through the years, I would own six. I loved them. And I loved

My thinking that hybrids were needlessly complex or not “real cars” began to change after buying the Highlander in 2011. I came to marvel at the fuel economy and reliability. And despite its age, the expensive lithium battery pack that drives its electric motor still works fine today at 150,000 miles. One day, during a routine service at Lex-Tech on Savannah Highway, I asked owner Glenn McAdory how many more years he reckoned we had in the battery pack. McAdory, who has worked on hundreds of Highlanders replied, “I don’t know.

I’ve never had to change one out.”

After one too many VW breakdowns, a 2016 Ford Transit van became my reliable family hauler. But alas, its fuel economy is even worse than our Vanagon.

The wakeup call

Not long before the pandemic hit, I took a trip to a Los Angeles hotel where the guest shuttles were Tesla sedans. When the hotel’s driver launched from zero to 60 in 3.5 seconds on Wilshire Boulevard, my mind was blown. I’d seen hilarious YouTube videos of Tesla acceleration reactions, but in person, the warpspeed acceleration was mind-bending.

On that same trip, I visited an old friend, and after a comparatively tame run in his chopped ’49 Mercury hot rod, we zipped to Lowe’s in his 2019 Chevy Volt plug-in-hybrid (PHEV). Like all PHEVs, it’s equipped with an electric motor and smaller battery than a pure EV. PHEVs can run shorter distances (generally 15 miles to, in the Volt’s case, 50 miles) purely on plug-in-charged electricity before switching over to hybrid gasoline operation.

My buddy could plug in the Volt at work and at home; solar panels fueled the car for free. Despite driving the car almost daily, “I haven’t bought gas in two months,” he said, “I don’t have an electric bill either.”

That was the wakeup call.

Plug-in hybrid or pure electric?

Lacking the money for a Tesla, my wife and I went down a rabbit hole trying to determine what really made sense.

During the pandemic, when gas demand and prices were low, you could find an EV like a Nissan Leaf or a PHEV like a Volt for a remarkably low price — in some cases, well under $10,000. (Despite much higher overall car prices today, you can still find pretty good deals on these two cars specifically.)

In figuring out what we should consider, we reckoned long trips could still be taken with our Transit or Highlander, so the long range of a Tesla or a PHEV wasn’t really needed. What we needed was something that could mostly be charged at home —

especially when we eventually would install our own solar panels on our house — and that wouldn’t break the bank.

We also looked at other costs. Electric cars have far fewer moving parts than gasoline models, and they don’t require maintenance like oil changes (no dipstick!).

Registration would cost more, though. The S.C. legislature ensures EV owners don’t evade the gas tax that maintains state roads by charging $60 per year for EV registration (you pay $120 every two years). If you buy a new EV, you can get considerable federal subsidies of several thousand dollars.

The contenders

With all that established, we took a bunch of test drives.

First came a 2018 Nissan Leaf. It was fun to drive, and had a reasonable 107mile range, but didn’t have the level of fit and finish my wife wanted. She was also used to driving the taller Highlander — a well-airbagged vehicle that simply felt solid and safe. Charleston is full of big-ass pickup trucks, and cars like the Chevy Volt, Nissan Leaf and another candidate, the Ford Focus electric, were just too low to the ground.

We next looked at a couple of German cars. There was the VW e-Golf, a fairly uncommon if uninteresting version of the beloved Golf, and a funky little electric BMW called an I3. The BMW in particular was cool. It was fast. It felt solid. It only had 100 miles of range, but that was really all we needed. Its rear doors opened suicidestyle like an old convertible Lincoln or a Honda Element to allow lots of stuff to be crammed inside. We seriously considered one, especially because there’s a version that comes with a tiny but range-extending gas engine for longer trips. But the deal killer: It only had four seat belts.

Some friends on the upper peninsula recently bought a 2019 Chevy Bolt hatchback. Now this thing was cool. Five seats.

Fast as heck. And a huge range of nearly 250 miles on a single charge.

But then we started hearing about battery fires and recalls. Damn!

Scratch that. (Update: Through its recall, Chevy will now replace the battery pack on Bolts for free.

So if you buy a used one, you now get even better range, a brandnew-eight-year, 100,000-mile warranty and a brand new, nonexploding, higher capacity battery pack good for up to 300 miles.)

The last car we wanted to test was an upright little plug-in hybrid Ford called a C-Max Energi.

It would only go 20 miles in pure electric mode, but a luxury 2017 Titanium model could be had for around $10,000. We drove one and it was nice — quiet and roomy and it seemed

solid. It wasn’t particularly fast, but it got the job done — and on electricity alone.

Wait, a Tesla-powered Mercedes?

We started leaning toward the C-Max until, one day on a whim, I Googled “Electric Mercedes.” The great oracle returned a hit with a vehicle we had never heard of — a handsome, tall-sided four-door hatchback called a B250e.

As I read further, it checked boxes. It seems the “B-Series” is Mercedes’ answer to the VW Golf in the European market.

The company doesn’t sell the petroleumpowered versions in the states, but in an interesting arrangement for its first electric foray, the storied German manufacturer decided to partner with Tesla in turning the B250 into a Tesla-powered, Tesla-battery hatchback. That sounded intriguing.

The car did have some apparent shortcomings. Unlike most EVs, it lacked a true fast-charge capability, meaning even if powered by a 240-volt (dryer or oven) outlet, a charge from near zero would take several hours. Plugged into a regular 120volt wall outlet, a full charge from near zero could take a full day.

Also, the car’s uppermost range was right at 100 miles. Still, it was a Mercedes, and it had solid reviews on YouTube and in Car & Driver magazine. The 2017 model (the last year it was sold) also featured Mercedes’ collision avoidance and

“

lane change warning systems.

Brand new, the car sold for nearly $41,000. But we could find a low-mileage model online for $16,000. So we located a reputable dealer in Virginia, had it conduct a Zoom video-tour of a beautiful little silver bullet and paid a Virginia Mercedes dealer $400 for a deep inspection. A few weeks later, a flatbed bearing the car arrived in our driveway.

Incredible performance and economy

The Mercedes has simply turned out to be an incredible car. Car & Driver claims a zero-to-60 time of under 6.7 seconds. In “Sport” mode, I’ve seen 60 click by in just over five seconds. It handles wonderfully.

It’s quiet, safe and roomy, with heated seats and a wicked cold air conditioner.

In the time since we bought the car, we’ve also installed solar panels on the roof of our home.

The panels generate more electricity than the house uses, so we get credit from Dominion Energy for the excess power we create, and a good portion of that excess power fuels the car.

Cost-per-mile wise, the Mercedes is astonishingly efficient. According to Fueleconomy. gov, the car’s energy use is the equivalent of 84 mpg. In the real world, its actual cost-permile driven is also astonishingly low.

Around town, I’ve found that the Mercedes will drive roughly 3.5 miles on a kilowatt hour (kWh) of electricity. In Charleston, a peak time kWh costs 12-13 cents. So it costs 3-4 cents to drive it a mile.

Our Ford Transit gets 14-15 mpg. At $5 per gallon, that works out to about 33 cents per mile. So it costs $3.33 to drive the Transit 10 miles. For the Mercedes, 10 miles charged at home costs 30-40 cents. With solar panels, I don’t see that cost at all. We did roll a monthly cost for the panels into our mortgage — of roughly half our normal previous electric bill.

The panels will be paid off in about five years.

Once you get over the novelty of owning an electric car and get used to the quiet and crazy acceleration, an EV eventually becomes just a car. When my wife and I pass gas stations offering fuel at $5 per gallon, however, there’s a strange sense of freedom — especially if the car has charged during the day with the sun shining. It’s tough to describe — unless you actually own an electric car.

Is the Mercedes perfect? No. But it’s perfect for us. Despite a lifetime as a gasoline addict, I’m a changed man.

By Michael Pham RAW LAB is what local chef Kevin Joseph calls “Earth’s only omakase raw bar experience,” and you can find it in the heart of downtown Charleston on Market Street.

Located at Port of Call Food + Brew Hall, RAW LAB is a threehour raw bar dining experience curated by the world’s first master mermmelier (mer-mah-lee-aye). (A mermmelier is to oysters what a sommelier is to wine, Joseph said.)

But RAW LAB is so much more than oysters. That’s just the first course out of nine. Joseph calls the experience “Marine Cuisine,” a term he coined that encompasses more than what seafood has to offer and emphasizes health and sustainability.

Marine Cuisine, trademarked in January 2020, stems back to his childhood infatuation with marine biology, oceanography and coral ecology.

Though a New York transplant, Joseph doesn’t see himself as a New Yorker. “In a manner of speaking, yeah,” he said. Joseph has lived in different parts of New York throughout his life, but spent nearly two decades in Colorado, and 15 years on and off in Florida as he moved north and south with the seasonal changes.

Growing up in the East Hamptons in New York sparked Joseph’s love for all things marine at a young age. “Those are my fondest memories — snorkeling and catching clams and running around the bogs out there,” Joseph said. “It’s just who I am.”

Even when he was away from the water in Colorado, Joseph connected with marine life in a unique way. Working in event marketing at the time, Joseph wanted to do something locals thought crazy: a New England-style clambake, seafood party and lobster bake in Denver dubbed “Surf on Turf.” According to Joseph, Denver is a “meat town,” which is exactly why his seafood events took off. “It is such a meat town that everyone would love to see a New England clambake,” he said.

Joseph moved back to the New York area in 2010 and recognized a big hole in the seafood industry. There was no one taking the initiative to be an authority on oysters. He decided that he would become that person.

To achieve this, he started New York Oyster Week as a way for restaurants to “flex their muscles (pun intended) and show people with money [how] to try new things with oysters,” Joseph said. According to him, though, no one knew the difference between one oyster and the next, so he worked with restaurants, chefs and diners to teach them about the intricacies of oysters. Kickstarting New York Oyster Week, in addition to consulting and hosting other events, helped Joseph eventually become the oyster expert he aimed to be.

“It’s definitely a part of the origin story,” he added. “Covid and pre-Covid, I was going to Florida in the winter, and working in New York in the summer, developing my menu, my culinary ethic and my philosophy on food as a private chef and yacht chef.”

Things really tipped in his favor in June of 2020, when he moved to Sag Harbor, a village in Long Island, New York. Joseph wasn’t quite sure what to do while there, but he had his Marine Cuisine trademark.

“I didn’t really have any connections in yachting there,” he said.

RAW LAB is a dining and educational experience wrapped into a three-hour course by chef Kevin Joseph “But I just put it out to the whole yachting world: ‘Hey, Marine Cuisine. I’m your yacht chef. I’m delivering Marine Cuisine and DelicaSeas at your home or at your yacht.’”

The popularity of Joseph’s private cooking took off, and he saw the potential Marine Cuisine had with consumers.

“That phrase is, to me, a very valuable and very important thing,” he said. “It’s part of my mission to get people to understand the difference between seafood and Marine Cuisine, from what’s sustainable, what’s responsible, what’s delicious and what’s healthy, and proving you can put all of that together at the same time and be full, but not be in a food coma.”

In all of his RAW LAB dinners, Joseph never serves anything that weighs more than 12 pounds because at that size fish become more unhealthy from heavy metals and microplastics. RAW LAB also rarely serves fully cooked food as Joseph’s way to offer meals that are bioavailable and contain healthy enzymes, probiotics and proteins.

With RAW LAB, Joseph’s profession evolved into more than just becoming “that guy” for oysters: “It’s about being somebody who can help consumers source their own seafood, get seafood abroad, find potential opportunities for traceability, make healthier choices in seafood and make more responsible, sustainable choices there,” Joseph added.

“That all boils down to a skill set and experience and an expertise. And I didn’t have a term for that. There wasn’t a term for that.

So I created that term.”

Ian James cultivates connection through relatable pop tunes

By Kate Bryan

Culture 06.22.2022

Ian James first emerged on the Charleston music scene with pop-rock group City on Down in 2016. James decided to move to Charleston to pursue music after graduating with a degree in finance from Bentley University in Massachusetts.

“I got a job out of college that I worked for a few months and I just knew it wasn’t my path,” he said. His journey as an artist has since undergone several transformations.

When the band called it quits in 2018, James began writing his own songs in the Christian pop genre, recording his first single, “I Look Up,” with Brian Jarvis of Charleston’s Midnight City Band in the summer of 2019.

Proud of the release but hesitant about his live act, James moved back home to Rochester, New York, during the Covid-19 shutdown to fine-tune his skills. “I was just so new to the whole solo performing world,” James said. “I really kind of hit a reset …

And I got a lot better, stronger vocally. I worked on my craft, got a lot more secure with the sound of music that I liked and was good at.”

He returned to Charleston in 2021, releasing his first music video for track “By My Side” in August before switching directions stylistically. “I have my faith, and that’s everything, but I also just have always been someone who has had friends and relationships in all different walks of life. It just felt like I was entering a different season,” he said.

James is now writing music outside of the confines of the Christian genre. His newest single, “In My Head,” was released June 10.

The track features Rochester-based pop and R&B artist and producer Isiah and is pop through and through, with an addictive, buoyant beat and smooth vocal stylings.

Lyrically, the single describes being unable to stop thinking about someone who has betrayed you in a relationship.

“Some of it is personal experience, and a lot of it is the experience of seeing what other people have been through, and this is the type of song somebody could relate to,” James said.

Though he is crafting secular music, James maintains that his songs can foster a special depth of connection. “I want to bridge the gap between people,” he said. “I believe

Local singer-songwriter Ian James released new pop single “In My Head” June 10 with another on the way in July that it’s not really about the title and the label and the category. It’s really just about connecting with people and showing love.”

James is gearing up for back-to-back shows in San Diego on July 15 and 16

and plans to release an ’80s-inspired pop song at the end of July. “I’m going to kind of keep a steady flow of stuff coming,” he said, “with the sound and the style of what I know I am now.”
