Welcome to The (real) Peach State

T

echnically tomatoes are a fruit, and we honor the value and taste of South Carolina tomatoes. They’re the best. You get savory and sweet in one beefsteak, Duke’s-slathered sandwich.

But this is about our favorite fruit that is unquestionably a fruit: Peaches.

Late summer is about the best time to get South Carolina-grown peaches. They’re plentiful and exceedingly delicious this time of year.

The peach industry in the Palmetto State isn’t just about great eating, though. It’s also one of the major agricultural drivers in South Carolina.

In short, South Carolina is the real peach state. Aside from what Georgia might want to put on airs about, they did likely, possibly, perhaps have the first documented peach tree land on North American shores on a Georgia Sea Island. We appreciate them doing that because it’s been a cash crop in South Carolina for well over 150 years and counting.

The peach industry has been struggling lately in both South Carolina and Georgia. As you can imagine, that’s increased prices for the sweet, fuzzy fruit and caused the sector to take a hit in overall value.

Data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which recently issued

ational developer Portman purchased 40 acres of land to develop the Summerville Logistics Center, a two-building industrial campus encompassing approximately 536,000 square feet in Summerville.

Construction is slated to begin in December, according to a news release from the developer.

Located along U.S. Highway 78 in Dorchester County, the Summerville Logistics Center will provide institutional-quality logistics space in the growing town.

Portman will develop two buildings at the site, one that is approximately 260,000 square feet and another that is approximately 306,000 square feet.

Portman said the site offers premier connectivity to Interstate 26, the region’s primary transportation artery, and is approximately 25 miles from the Port of Charleston. Once complete in February 2025, the center will feature two single-load facilities with a 210-foot shared truck court, the news release stated.

Summerville Logistics Center is being developed nine miles south of Portman’s Campus 4 at Camp Hall, a 188-acre commerce park billed by the developer as “next generation.”

Clarke Attaway with Lee & Associates represented the seller and will lead the leasing efforts for the Summerville Logistics Center on behalf of Portman.

Portman’s Charleston industrial portfolio now spans 228 acres and 2.6 million square feet of space that is either delivered, under construction or under design. Also in Charleston, Portman has partnered with Highland Resources to develop Magnolia, a 189-acre mixed-use project that will introduce a new waterfront entertainment, shopping, dining and office district for tourists and residents. Magnolia will break ground in the third quarter of 2024, the company said in the release..

Portman launched its industrial business line in 2021 with a mission of developing modern logistics facilities in core markets serving the U.S. supply chain.

Portman’s industrial team leverages the company’s development platform to diversify its portfolio of more than $1.2 billion in assets under management and under construction in key markets across the country, including Boston, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Charleston and Austin, Texas, the release stated..

Founded by famed architect John Portman in the 1950s, Portman is a privately owned national real estate investment, development and management firm.

SC Aquarium breaks ground on Boeing Learning Lab

By Ross Norton

rnorton@scbiznews.com

he South Carolina Aquarium broke ground July 25 on renovations for their new multidisciplinary learning center, the Boeing Learning Lab at the Charleston Maritime Center.

The Maritime Center will be renovated to house a growing slate of education programming offered by the South Carolina Aquarium, according to a news release.

Situated along the waterfront of the Charleston Harbor and a short walk from the aquarium, the Boeing Learning Lab will comprise 8,500 square feet of educational space that includes four indoor classrooms, one open-air classroom, a broadcast studio to conduct virtual programs and office space for aquarium staff, the release said.

The South Carolina Aquarium was the first aquarium in the country to open with a fully formed education master plan with a mission of providing accessible STEM education programs to students. But the program has consistently faced limitations in space, the release stated.

The Learning Lab will double the number of students they can serve annually through their core education offerings, such as Dominion Energy School Programs (the aquarium’s free standards-based curriculum for K-12 students) and a slate of teen programs, including the High School Intern Pro-

gram and Teen Science Cafes.

“When complete, the Boeing Learning Lab at the Charleston Maritime Center will be a beacon for inclusivity and engagement along

our waterfront, serving school children with standards-based science curriculum and providing access to the waterfront for all,” Kevin Mills, president and CEO of the South Caro-

lina Aquarium, said in the release. “And that experiential learning has already begun. This morning, we had a guest appearance from a bottlenose dolphin who had recently caught a fish, just beyond the dock outside the Boeing Learning Lab doors. Our high school interns quickly gathered in awe to witness this unforgettable encounter, where our educators took advantage of this opportunity to interpret the dolphin’s behavior for them. That is what the Boeing Learning Lab is all about — unlocking the waterfront and all the wonder that lies within, filling the minds of curious kids with knowledge and igniting a lifelong passion to care for our natural world.”

The Aquarium has plans to expand their education footprint with year-round opportunities at the Learning Lab, including summer and after school programming. Additionally, they are in conversations with other organizations to determine ways that the venue can serve as a space to host community dialogues and innovative programming.

In attendance at the groundbreaking were city officials, community leaders, legislators and aquarium staff and interns. The opening of the Boeing Learning Lab represents the advancement of Landmark, the Aquarium’s five-year strategic plan which prioritizes unlocking and animating the waterfront for families, students, residents and tourists.

The South Carolina Aquarium is home to more than 5,000 animals, from river otters and sharks to sea turtles and shorebirds.

Developers celebrate new opportunity zone in Charleston

By Ross Norton

R

rnorton@scbiznews.com

evitate recently celebrated the opening of the Morrison Yard opportunity zone develop-

ment.

Located at 838 Morrison Drive in a federally designated Qualified Opportunity Zone, the property features 380 upgraded multifamily rental units and approximately 27,250 square feet of ground-floor retail space. Revitate Executive Chairman Alex Bhathal said in a news release that the development also brings economic stimulation and social revitalization to an emerging neighborhood known as North Morrison that was formerly dedicated to industrial businesses serving the nearby port.

“Morrison Yard is a terrific example of how we seek to generate both positive impacts for communities and compelling risk-adjusted returns to our investors,” Bhathal said in the news release. “Through a business lens, the project reflects our strategy of partnering with top-tier sponsors to build new multifamily housing in high-growth communities nationwide. And through a community lens, we are compelled by potential to catalyze new job creation, housing, economic development and community benefits in an historically overlooked and underestimated neighborhood.”

The property is part of the larger master-planned mixed-use development of the same name. At completion of the of the master plan, Morrison Yard will offer more than 138,000 square feet of Class A office space in a 10-story building, 380 apartment homes, more than 40,000 square feet of street-level retail, a Kimpton Hotel, and luxury residences, the release stated. The newly completed phase I apartments, Morrison Yard Residences, were delivered by Woodfield Development.

Bhathal and his fellow Revitate cofounder Lisa Merage invested in Morrison Yard via RevOZ Capital, an opportunity zone investment platform they co-founded in 2019 with Cress Capital that completed its investments in 2022, the release said. Bhathal and Merage continue their opportunity zone investing through the Revitate Impact strategy. Through both RevOZ Capital and Revitate, they have led or co-led four Opportunity Zone funds with investment into 15 projects with an estimated total project value of $1.5 billion, they said in the release.

Joining Bhathal was U.S. Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.), a Charleston native and co-author of the 2017 federal legislation that established the Opportu-

nity Zone program.

“This Morrison Yard project is a fantastic example of the power of Opportunity Zones,” Scott said in the release. “It’s wonderful to see targeted investments and community collaboration result in economic transformation. This project is poised to create a safer and more prosperous community for generations to come.”

The project’s developer Woodfield Development was also on hand to mark the completion of construction and celebrate the opening of the community.

“We are proud to be a part of this transformative project, which will stimulate the local economy for generations of Charleston residents,” Mike Schwarz, partner at Woodfield Development, said in the release.

“The amenities and recreational opportunities are world-class. But just as importantly, we are committed to serving as a positive force for the Eastside community and greater Charleston.”

Morrison Yard includes studios, one-, two-, and three-bedroom floorplans with elevated finishes and hardware including designer light fixtures, built-in cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances. Set on over five acres, the community offers an open-air saltwater pool with sundecks, cabanas, grilling stations, and TVs; 1.5 acres of outdoor courtyards; a dog park; a state-of-the-art gym with fitness classes; and group gatherings such as wine tastings and cookouts.

According to an economic impact study prepared by the University of South Carolina, the Morrison Yard project is expected to generate a cumulative economic impact in excess of $1.4 billion by 2030 via development of new housing, office space and retail programming, the release said. An estimated 84% of this impact is expected to be captured within the city of Charleston.

Morrison Yard is located within a Qualified Opportunity Zone, one of more than 8,700 census tracts identified by state and federal leaders as high priority areas to attract new long-term private investment to stimulate economic and community development. The Opportunity Zone program is a result of bipartisan legislation enacted in 2017 under the guidance of Sen. Scott and his co-sponsor Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.). The program provides tax benefits for individuals who make long-term investments into QOZ communities.

Revitate Impact facilitates investment into commercial real estate developments located in Qualified Opportunity Zones in emerging secondary markets across the country.

Chef fills Charleston niche with African-inspired cuisine

By Stefanie Kalina-Metzger

B

Contributing writer

intou N’Daw is no stranger to the food industry. The French and Senegalese chef from Saint Louis, Senegal, worked as a private chef in New York and Senegal before taking a job at Chez Nous in Charleston.

“I loved the atmosphere of the French restaurant,” she said, adding that it reminded her of her grandmother’s French heritage.

The chef, who also owns a line of hot pepper condiments inspired by African cuisine called Nafi’s condiments, recently opened Bintü Atelier African-Inspired Cuisine at 8D Line St. in Charleston. She said that she is filling a niche in the area. “I couldn’t find any African cuisine here,” she said.

N’Daw fell in love with Charleston after vacationing in the area every year.

“I loved it so much that I decided to move here,” she said, adding that it resembles her native country of which she has fond memories.

N’Daw currently serves customers in an outside setting with 12 seats. “We’ll soon have an indoor seating where we will be able to serve 26 at a big, community table,” she said.

As for food, she said that she is currently focusing on Senegal.

“I’m serving fish and using ingredients like rice, black-eyed peas and okra, right now,” she said, adding that she’ll begin to incorporate more dishes from West Afri-

ca in August. She’s also using her line of condiments in her food. “I’m moving production from New York to South Carolina to the Colleton Commercial Kitchen in Waterboro.”

One of the dishes that is currently receiving good customer feedback is supa kanja.

“It’s like a gumbo,” she said.

Those on special diets might be interested to learn that all of N’Daw’s food is gluten free.

“I use lots of couscous, cassava flour and sweet potato flour because we don’t have a lot of wheat in my region,” she said, adding that she also eschews canola oil.

“We use coconut oil, peanut oil and palm oil, making our food healthier than some others,” she said.

As for sourcing ingredients, N’Daw said that she finds many ingredients locally since the South uses similar products as her home in Saint Louis, Senegal. “It’s easy to get okra, peanuts, black-eyed peas, fish and other products locally, so all I have to source from beyond our area are some oils and spices,” she said.

N’Daw understands that many people may be unfamiliar with the cuisine, so her goal is to educate and familiarize them.

“I’m really happy to present Africa in a culinary way. The food is something that brings people together,” she said.

N’Daw said that she is happy to be doing what she loves in a city that she loves.

“It’s been a wonderful experience,” she said.

Jason Tucker designed La Cuisine du Chevalier to evoke the feeling of walking down the Champs-Élysées. (Photo/Provided)

Meet the owner of Summerville’s only French-themed restaurant

By Stefanie Kalina-Metzger

J

Contributing writer

ason Tucker reports that business is booming at the boîte known as La Cuisine du Chevalier, or La Chev, by the locals. The 40-seat restaurant, which translates to “the knight’s kitchen,” garnered rave reviews by online contributors when it opened in November at the former soup restaurant called Ladles in the Shoppes of Summerville.

It only recently held a grand opening celebration.

Tucker, who has lived in Summerville for the past 16 years, is no stranger to the restaurant business. “My background is extremely diverse and it started back when I was 15-years’ old scooping ice cream in Central Pennsylvania,” he said.

Over the years, Tucker has worked in numerous restaurants, from chains like Buffalo Wild Wings, Cracker Barrel and the Hilton, to groups like Charleston Hospitality and more. After bartending his way through college in Virginia,

the hard-working transplant accepted a management position from his employer, which took him to Summerville, where he has been ever since.

The father of two boys is also the operating partner at Wine & Tapas in Summerville and was buoyed by the popularity of the business. This inspired him to open a new restaurant, this time with a French flair.

“They call the area the French Quarter, but it lacked a French-themed restaurant, which never made sense to me, especially with the growth we are seeing in this area,” he said.

Tucker said that La Chev was designed to evoke the feeling of walking down the Champs-Élysées.

“It’s a cute café that’s quaint and all about the food and wine,” he said.

It doesn’t hurt that Tucker worked in the wine distribution business and is well-versed on what’s exceptional. He said that his goal is to bring people in by rivaling the quality that a customer would get in downtown Charleston.

“It’s all about the ingredients and there’s a lot of precision and thought that goes into each of our dishes,” he said, adding that chef de cuisine Jonathan DuPriest, who grew up in Knightsville, is Johnson and Wales-trained.

When it comes to dishes, Tucker said that the most popular lunch items that they serve are the French Dip and the shrimp and grits.

“A lot of people judge the quality of the restaurant by their shrimp and grits,” he said.

As for dinner, Tucker offers quite a few specials, ranging from steak dishes, to surf and turf, scallops, crabcakes, and salmon. “Everyone says that it’s the best salmon served in the Atlantic Coastal area,” Tucker said.

For now, La Chev is taking reservations, except for the bar and outside area, so last-minute plans to dine can be accommodated if guests don’t mind sitting in either area.

Tucker also recently announced that they will be open on Sundays for brunch.

“We’re currently working on the menu which we will implement sometime around the end of July,” he said.

Kurry Seymour was a Ladles customer who was wowed by his first visit.

“This place brings a refreshing vibe to the Knightsville area and I am impressed by the décor, which was converted into a very fine, but very cozy dining experience,” he said. Seymour, who ordered the salmon, said it was ‘fantastic’ and that a steak that went by his table convinced him to order that when he returns.

“Everything from food, to service was outstanding,” he said.

Reviews like this are music to Tucker’s ears.

“I never thought I’d be in a situation where I’d be running two separate restaurants, but I love the feeling one gets when someone is happy with an experience.

Making moments special is the best feeling in the world and having the opportunity to have someone really love what you’re doing, well, it doesn’t get any better than that,” he said, with a smile.

Marvel’s Hawkeye actor buys into Charleston vodka company

By Ross Norton

A

rnorton@scbiznews.com

n actor known as a superhero and a super spy got a taste of a Charleston-based vodka and decided it was, well … super. Good enough, at least, to put his money where his tastebuds are.

Jeremy Renner, a two-time Oscar nominee known to Marvel movie fans as Hawkeye, and as Jason Bourne fans as the star of the series’ fourth film, is a new owner in Sweet Grass Vodka.

Renner made the announcement July 23 via Instagram from his home in Reno, Nevada, where he has been recovering from a Jan. 1 snowplow accident.

“I’m so grateful for the progress I’ve made since the start of this year which allowed me to move forward with my interest in Sweet Grass Vodka,” Renner said in a news release from Sweet Grass Vodka. “Their mission is rooted in community and shared experience, which is why the second I tried it, I knew I wanted to become a part of it.”

Plans are underway for a cross-country appearance and bottle signing tour.

“Jeremy understands the purity and craftsmanship of our vodka intrinsically,” Jarrod Swanger, CEO of Sweet

Grass Vodka, said in the release. “We are so grateful to share ownership of our brand with someone who resonates with our passion and vision to create the best vodka on the planet.”

Swanger and his wife Alicia founded the 100% potato vodka company based on her Polish family recipe.

Sweet Grass Vodka is sourced locally in South Carolina with no artificial ingredients or gluten, the company says.

Sweet Grass Vodka was recognized by Forbes when it won a Master Award in three separate categories for Organic, Micro-distillery and Smoothest as well as “Best Premium Distillery.” In 2022, Sweet Grass Vodka was crowned “Best Domestic Vodka” by the Fifty Best, the release said. Most recently, Sweet Grass Vodka won a gold medal at the 2023 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

The product is bottled in downtown Charleston and distributed nationally by RNDC. It is currently sold in stores in Florida, Georgia, Illinois, South Carolina and Tennessee and is available for purchase online nationwide. Sweet Grass Vodka’s flagship bottling facility and tasting room is The Sweetgrass Lounge and is located in The Refinery at 1640 Meeting Street Road in Charleston.

Charleston goes permanent with ID check program

By Ross Norton

rnorton@scbiznews.com

he city of Charleston will make permanent an ID verification program tested during a pilot period over the last few months to prevent underage drinking in bars and restaurants.

The city partnered with Intellicheck Inc., an identity validation company that provides ID verification technology used by law enforcement agencies across the country. During the pilot program, supported by the city and Explore Charleston, 30 downtown establishments tested Intellicheck’s ID verification tool in an effort to eliminate underage drinking, according to a news release.

Throughout the six-month trial period, Intellicheck’s mobile app-based technology was used to perform more than 100,000 ID scans that identified approximately 3,400 fake or invalid IDs, Intellicheck reported in the news release. As a result, these IDs were prevented from being used by those illegally seeking to gain access to late-night establishments and alcoholic beverages.

Intellicheck’s ID verification technology, which is presently used by the Charleston Police Department and South Carolina Law Enforcement Division, has proven to be more than 99% accurate in authenticating IDs in less than one second using

existing mobile devices or point-of-sale scanners, the release stated.

With the launch of the city’s new, permanent partnership with Intellicheck, businesses located within city limits are invited to take advantage of the ID scanning technology, which includes five mobile app licenses to be used by employees.

“As this pilot program clearly demonstrates, stopping underage drinking makes King Street, and our whole city,

safer,” Mayor John Tecklenburg said in the release. “We look forward to welcoming many more local businesses to the Intellicheck program and continuing to work together to protect our residents and visitors alike.”

Councilman Michael S. Seekings agreed.

“For the last six months, we’ve seen firsthand the positive impact that can be made through public-private partnerships,”

Seekings said in the release. “Together, we’ve taken great strides toward eliminating underage drinking in our community, and this is just the beginning.”

Lieutenant James Byrne, commander of the CPD’s Central Business District Division, said the program has made the city safer.

“As law enforcement officials, our main focus is protecting our communities, and our partnership with Intellicheck has been instrumental to our efforts to combat the use of fake IDs by underage individuals,” he said in the release. “As this technology becomes available to businesses citywide, we have a valuable opportunity to prevent the tragedies that often occur due to underage drinking and create a safer environment for all.”

Intellicheck CEO Bryan Lewis said the company looks forward to working with more Charleston businesses.

“We are very proud of the results of our efforts working with the city of Charleston, Explore Charleston, area law enforcement agencies and King Street area businesses to help prevent underage drinking,” Lewis said in the release. “High-tech fake IDs are readily and inexpensively available to young people on the web. Unfortunately, young people don’t recognize the dangerous situation they create for themselves and others when they use those sophisticated fake IDs to access alcohol and other age-restricted products.”

Construx’s kits aim to tackle housing shortages and affordable housing

By Jenny Peterson

A

Contributing Writer

Charleston-based company that creates modern pre-fabricated homes is offering a promising way to address housing shortages and create more affordable housing.

The company’s housing build systems have parts that essentially snap together and can be built in just days with no specialized labor required.

Construx (formerly Charleston Fab Lab) owners Rob Bertschy, chief revenue officer, and Nicholas Godfrey, CEO, say the housing kits can save up to 20% of construction labor costs compared to building homes using traditional construction.

“The savings are in labor because these houses can be put together by unskilled workers — you just need a rubber mallet to put these together. There are no tape measures, no saws. We’re taking that element out where an unskilled worker can build precise, strong, perfect houses,” Godfrey said. “Each kit has an assembly guide that’s, ‘step one, step two, step three,’ and the parts fit together so tightly that everything is perfectly straight and perfectly square.”

Construx manufactures 16 different designs that offer a variety of floor plans and up to 50 different layouts and looks, including two-story homes. The kits have models with porches and balconies and the company can work with architects to incorporate nearly any style and size.

Using 3-D cutting of the panels, the kits can be mass produced quickly and use helix foundations for virtually zero soil disturbance and the ability to be placed on lots that are difficult to build on using traditional methods.

While the company works with private homeowners, the idea is to be a cost-saving solution for contractors. A 528 square-foot, one-bedroom home with a porch starts at $125,000 and a three- bedroom, two-bath home that is between 1,200-1,800 square feet starts at $165,000.

“We want contractors to buy our framing structure so they can build more homes and have us become the ‘shell’ that they finish,” said Bertschy. “Contractors have a problem today with finding skilled labor and we’re providing a guaranteed frame where everything is the right size. We don’t want to compete with contractors; we want to be a solution for them.”

Construx has worked with non-profits, foundations and private property owners to use the housing kits to easily add a second home on a lot to provide additional rental housing stock. The company has added nineteen houses in the Charleston area, from Hollywood to Johns Island.

Many Charleston-area city laws allow Construx’s smaller units to be added to lots that are 9,000 square feet and up.

sion and an earthquake in Haiti. He started putting the first prefab housing kits together in 2011 in his Johns Island backyard.

He connected with Bertschy, a Johns Island neighbor, who previously owned a swing company and whose family was in construction.

“I talked to half a dozen engineers, but it really came down to meeting someone who really identified with trying to go after a lack of affordable housing,” Godfrey said.

“I was intrigued by seeing the things (Godfrey) was building out for testing and asked, ‘How can I get involved?’” Bertschy recalls. “It was at a point where all the work was ready to be put into a product. I came in and started getting sales and contracts. Nicholas is the scientist and I’m the business and sales side.”

The two started in earnest in 2014, manufacturing the houses in Charleston in a research and development phase under the name Charleston Fab Lab with the first homes in Asheville, N.C., thanks to a contract and connection. The first houses in Charleston came online in 2016 in the Park Circle area.

Affordable Housing Alternative

The Construx product comes in kits that the company says makes assembly simple. (Photo/Provided)

“Many municipalities, including North Charleston, have made it easy to build these backyard units with tax credits, rapid permitting and very easy guidelines to allow people to add these small backyard 528-square-foot options,” Bertschy said.

The units are partially pre-assembled at the Construx warehouse in downtown Charleston and shipped by truck in parts to the site where they are finished being assembled by most able-bodied adults, even those without prior construction experience. The kits snap together and have all hookups ready for water and sewer, central air conditioning and heat.

“A couple of friends in three or four Saturdays could get their own structure up,” Godfrey said. “Then, it’s up to a contractor to tie into the water and sewer as a second step after the structure is up.”

The ease of the kits allows for more rapid connections to utilities than a traditional house, Bertschy said.

“The kits are more intuitive for the plumber and the electrician, HVAC and mechanical contractor. What would normally take an electrician four or five days takes three quarters of a day with our system. There’s not as much drilling and it’s kind of a ‘plug in and play,’” Bertschy said.

The kits are ideal for construction and contractor partners for foundations, non-profits and governmental housing to add quality housing in less time and for less cost.

The company is licensed in 38 states and works on projects across the Southeast as well as Oregon, California, Idaho and Texas.

“We’re looking at a project now in Canada,” Godfrey said.

The housing kits have become so popular that Construx will be seeking investor funding over the next six months to scale up in order to make hundreds of pre-fabricated homes a month.

“We’re getting contracts in the hundreds now that we got through our R&D phase,” Godfrey said. “We are not able to (currently) handle that demand.”

Investor funding would allow the company to increase production capacity locally and expand to other markets. The company also is looking to secure grant funding to add affordable housing stock throughout the county.

“We don’t want to build a gigafactory that can build houses and ship them all over the country. We want a bunch of little factories distributed across the country that are a low-cost barrier to entry from an equipment standpoint. Instead of having one facility that can build 1,000 houses, we’d rather have a thousand facilities that can build 50,000 houses,” Godfrey said.

An idea is born

Godfrey, who has a background in fabrication and technology, said the idea is 16 years in the making, after an economic reces-

Anyone can purchase the Construx building system, but the focus is on affordable homes and working with contractors, Godfrey said. The company has worked with local land trusts to place homes on family-owned and heirs property land.

Construx kits are unique and modern designs that are unlike the cookie-cutter blocks of apartment homes historically seen in affordable housing communities. Construx works with architects on new and existing designs.

“We can take almost any look of any house and convert it to our building system,” Godfrey said.

There are opportunities to incorporate innovative materials in the future, like industrial hemp in lieu of wood frames and walls.

With a mission as a solution-oriented company, Godfrey said the lower-cost and lower environmental impact housing kits can make a big — and rapid — difference in addressing affordable housing around the country.

“There’s not a city out there that has enough affordable housing. Some cities are further along, where they have land allocated and bids open — a need for 400 homes in Phoenix or 200 homes in Vancouver; these projects are right up our alley and partners from those markets contact us to bid on them,” Bertschy said. “The plan is to continue to grow here and expand, but to take the model we’ve built and expand it to other markets through existing fabricators. It’s infinitely scalable because the demand for housing is never ending.”

BullStreet cupola reaches milestone in return to Columbia skyline

By Christina Lee Knauss

A

cknauss@scbiznews.com

n iconic part of Columbia’s skyline is one step closer to making a comeback.

Workers on Wednesday, July 26, raised part of the cupola back to the roof of the Babcock Building, the historic centerpiece of Columbia’s BullStreet District.

The 48,000-pound section is the windowed base of the cupola, called a clerestory.

In August, the building’s familiar red dome will be placed atop the base, making the cupola whole once again and bringing back a signature Columbia landmark that many people say is second only to the State House dome for recognition.

Three years ago, many feared the historic domed cupola — and the Babcock Building itself — were doomed after a Sept. 12, 2020, fire caused heavy damage to the building and caused the cupola to fall. Luckily, the fire damaged less than 15% of the historic building, making restoration of the dome and the continued renovation of the building possible.

The ongoing renovations of the building are being handled by Clachan Properties, a Virginia-based company that specializes in acquiring, renovating and managing historic properties. The company’s portfolio includes properties in North Carolina and Virginia. The Babcock project is its first in South Carolina and its largest to date. Walter Parks Architects of Richmond, Va., is the architect

for the restoration while Rehab Builders Inc. of Winston-Salem, N.C., is the contractor.

Clachan has worked for the past three years to transform the 254,000-square-foot building, which once housed mental patients, into a 208-unit apartment building.

The 2020 fire and the fall of the cupola briefly put the whole project in doubt.

Clachan’s vice president, Amy Creason, recalls the morning she heard about the fire.

“When the cupola fell, we were concerned that we wouldn’t be able to keep going on the project,” she said. “We were all in tears. We thought we were done.”

Creason and others said the quick work of firefighters that morning controlled the damage enough so that work on the Babcock Building could continue.

Everyone knew that the historic dome had to be restored. The problem was finding

someone who could make it as close to the original as possible.

“Rebuilding a cupola is not something you do a lot — the challenge was finding companies who could do it,” Creason said.

The structure has been restored in two parts. The clerestory was built by Museum Resources of Williamsburg, Va., and Kentucky-based Campbellsville Industries has built the new metal dome, which will be 18 feet tall and weighs about 10,000 pounds.

With the clerestory back on top of the roof, now the waiting begins for the dome, which is set to arrive in Columbia in early August.

“The dome will be the crowning glory for this Renaissance revival building that has been a Columbia landmark since it was first built,” said John Sherrer, director of preservation for Historic Columbia. “It’s been a huge undertaking for Clachan to take one of South

Carolina’s most iconic and recognizable buildings and transform it into apartments.

This kind of historic project has huge importance not only for the state but for the nation.”

Residents started moving into the Babcock Building in 2022 and currently only 24 of the 208 apartments are available for lease, Creason said.

The apartments vary in size from one to three bedrooms and each is unique because of the building’s design, she said. The building is full of original elements, including the 1,800 historic windows which were removed from the building, restored and then carefully replaced.

The original layout of the Babcock Building has been preserved as much as possible, down to former dayrooms for patients and visitors which now have been transformed into lounge space for residents.

“The Babcock building means a lot to Columbia, and it’s significant we were able to resurrect it, save it and create homes for people,” Creason said.

Sherrer said the restoration of the cupola and the Babcock Building’s new role as an apartment building offers a chance to reflect on both the building’s history and that of the BullStreet District itself.

“This building means so many things to so many people who all had different experiences based on why they were here,” he said.

“We want this restoration to be a gateway to Columbia’s future while also preserving the past.”

Business Digest

Charleston Southern University selects new president

By Ross Norton

C

rnorton@scbiznews.com

harleston Southern University has turned to one of its own to be the university’s fourth pres-

ident.

The university trustees unanimously approved and announced the appointment of B. Keith Faulkner to the post on July 26. Faulkner, a 1998 Charleston Southern alumnus, will begin in early October.

Board of Trustees Chair Judy Hetz, who co-chaired the search committee, said they conducted a national search for a leader with deep faith.

With 20 years of higher education experience, Faulkner currently serves as president and dean of Appalachian School of Law in Virginia, according to a news release from Charleston Southern. Prior to that position, he served as the dean of Liberty University School of Law and the Lundy-Fetterman School of Business at Campbell University. He

Renfroe Outdoor Advertising to become Verde Outdoor

Renfroe Outdoor Advertising is rebranding and changing its name to Verde Outdoor (pronounced ver-day).

The name change concludes the acquisition initiated by Verde Outdoor in late 2021. The rebrand unifies the companies under the Verde Outdoor name, making it easier for advertisers to identify products and teams across each of its nine markets throughout the Midwest and the mid- and South Atlantic regions.

As part of its rebrand, Renfroe is transitioning its online presence to Verde Outdoor’s channels, including social media platforms and website. Verde Outdoor’s website will incorporate Renfroe’s billboard inventory and team contact information while providing additional content and resources to advertisers looking to start an out-of-home campaign.

In addition, Renfroe is adopting Verde Outdoor’s logo and brand identity as well as updating its billboard imprints, introducing Verde green to the Charleston and Savannah areas.

Lowcountry Food Bank raises $550,000 to fight childhood hunger

Lowcountry Food Bank’s 24th annual Chefs’ Feast gala drew 480 community partners and guests in support of ending childhood hunger. For 24 years, donations at Chefs’ Feast have funded the food bank’s childhood hunger pro-

also served as interim dean at Campbell University’s Norman Adrian Wiggins School of Law. Over his career, he and his teams have launched online programs, developed partnerships with industry, and conducted fundraising efforts.

“We were blessed with many qualified candidates; however, the uniqueness of Keith Faulkner’s combination of receiving his degrees at Christian institutions and working at Christian colleges first as a professor and then as a dean at the world’s largest Christian college equipped him to understand the day-to-day challenges of our faculty and staff,” Hetz said in the news release. “Faulkner is a prime example of the quality of Christian education that Charleston Southern provides students.

Graduates leave CSU with the skills needed to pursue successful careers and live lives of integrity as they serve their fellow man, displaying Christ’s love in the workplace, community and home.”

Faulkner said he looks forward to

serving his alma mater.

“The responsibility of leading is one that I take with great seriousness and humility,” he stated in the release. “I am a good listener, and I am anxious to hear from our alumni about how they believe that we can improve CSU together. Serving a cause and a place that you love is an opportunity like no other, and I commit to work hard every day to expose the light of CSU to any and all who will see it. Due in large part to the exceptional leadership of all who have gone before me and a Board of Trustees who sincerely believe in our mission, CSU has grown and flourished over the decades since its faithful beginnings. We stand on the shoulders of giants, and their faithfulness and stewardship along with God’s abiding love have positioned CSU for even greater heights.”

Faulkner earned his Juris Doctor degree and an MBA from Campbell University’s Norman Adrian Wiggins School of Law. He also has an LLM in litigation management from the Baylor

grams — Kids Café, Backpack Buddies, School Market, School Pantry, and Summer Meals — which alleviate afterschool, weekend, and summer hunger for children. The event raised $550,000.

Presented by Atlas Technologies and hosted by ABC 4 chief meteorologist Dave Williams, Chefs’ Feast was a collaboration between the Lowcountry Food Bank and more than 30 of the community’s most celebrated chefs. Chef Robert Carter founded Chefs’ Feast in 1999.

For the sixth consecutive year, Jacques Larson, executive chef of the Obstinate Daughter and Wild Olive, served as the Chefs’ Feast lead chef. Lowcountry Food Bank executive chef Emily Cookson served as the event’s VIP chef.

Participants in this year’s Chefs’ Feast included Acme Lowcountry Kitchen, Aramark, Charleston Place, Charleston Chocolatiers, Chez Nous, Chubby Fish, Circa 1886, Cru Café and Catering, Culinary Institute of Charleston at Trident Technical College, Edmund’s Oast, 82 Queen, The Grocery, Hank’s Seafood, Indigo Road, Jalisco, Kiss Café, Kwei Fei, Lowcountry Food Bank, Magnolia’s, Obstinate Daughter, Relish Restaurant Group, The River Course-Kiawah Island Club, Salthouse Catering, The Sanctuary at Kiawah Island Resort, Slightly North of Broad, St. Honore Pastry, Swig & Swine, and Vern’s.

Agreement between Boeing and Saudi carriers underscores importance of Saudi-US partnership There is nothing that more closely ties two nations together than trade, investments, and economic cooperation. And nothing bridges two cultures better than in-person travel to different countries across the world.

The new partnership we celebrated in Charleston recently, between Boeing and Saudi Arabia, accomNAZER plishes both.

On March 14, 2023, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia announced two major agreements with Boeing. These agreements are for the Kingdom to purchase up to 121 Boeing Dreamliners for Saudia Airlines, already the third largest airline in the Middle East, and the recently formed Riyadh Air. The agreements are valued in the billions and constitute Boe-

ing’s fifth largest commercial order in its history. It will support over 140,000 jobs throughout America, including in South Carolina where the economic impact will be over $640 million, supporting 11,000 jobs.

From Saudi Arabia’s founding in 1932 to today, American companies have played an integral role in the Kingdom’s growth and prosperity. This agreement reflects the strength and depth of Saudi-U.S. relations.

A relationship that continues to grow and expand under various presidential administrations from both parties.

This strategic partnership will have a significant economic impact in South Carolina and across the United States and will contribute to achieving the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 objectives, under the leadership of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and the Crown Prince. It will advance Saudi Arabia’s goals relating to the transformation of our tourism, transportation and logistics sectors. Our

aim is to become the world’s fifth largest logistics hub, a global transportation epicenter for tourists, families, academics, students and business leaders that will serve 330 million passengers and attract 100 million visitors to the kingdom by 2030. It is this ambition that helped lead to the agreements with Boeing and will lead to an even closer relationship between South Carolina and the Saudi people.

Riyadh Air, a new airline owned by the PIF with advanced fleet of aircrafts, specifically will be equipped with the latest modern technologies aiming to lead the aviation industry. This new airline is expected to contribute $20 billion growth in non-oil GDP in the Kingdom, further diversifying our economy, and will create over 200,000 jobs in Saudi Arabia both directly and indirectly. For Saudia, the agreement will significantly expand its fleet and its ability to reach international destinations.

These agreements are not just about a new Saudi airline or even the 121 new aircraft. It is about a Saudi Arabia that is looking forward, engaging with the world, and pursuing new opportunities ranging from tourism, new investments, and diversification of trade. We believe agreements like these will help ensure a prosperous, peaceful and secure Middle East while continuing the long history of U.S.-Saudi partnership that has improved the lives of both Americans and Saudis.

Fahad Nazer is the official spokesperson for the Embassy of Saudi Arabia in the United States.
