Before & After - Charleston


Suga Shack, Charleston, S.C.

Where was the Board of Architectural Review when we lost the Suga Shack? I thought the goal was to keep things of value. Suga Shack! Suga Shack! We want the Suga Shack back!

I have no idea what the Suga Shack was. Just liked the sound of it. Suga Shack!

ahhhh - i remeber this building well. i lived directly across the street above the NAACP. i believe it was a barber shop when i first moved in, then it became a clothing store or something similar :)

Whatever it was, it sure looked a far sight better than the after photo!

Love the leaning house behind it, BTW...

Eww. Teal. Gag! What were they thinking? I so liked it much better when it was yellow.

carolinamomma - I walked that stretch yesterday. Lots of changes going on.

Pat - I agree. That silly Suga Shack sign made me happy.

Nikki - Ha! the three of us should get to vote :))

Maybe a candy store, the kind that sold penny candies when I was growing up? I love that, and I am also sorry it is no more!
