The population of the Charleston Metropolitan area, comprising Berke- ley, Charleston and Dorchester counties, was counted by the 2013 estimate at 712,220 – the third largest in the state – and the 76th-largest metropolitan statistical area in the United States. Known for its rich history, well-preserved architec- ture, distinguished restaurants, and mannerly people, Charleston has received a large number of accolades, in- cluding “America’s Most Friendly [City]" by Travel + Leisure in 2011 and in 2013 and 2014 by Condé Nast Traveler,[9][10] and also “the most polite and hospitable city in America” by Southern Living magazine.

1.1.1 Colonial era (1670–1786)

After Charles II of England (1630–1685) was restored to the English throne in 1660 following Oliver Cromwell's Protectorate, he granted the chartered Province of Car- olina to eight of his loyal friends, known as the Lords Proprietors, on March 24, 1663. It took seven years be- fore the group arranged for settlement expeditions. The first of these founded Charles Town, in 1670. The com- munity was established by several shiploads of settlers from Bermuda (which lies due East of South Carolina, al- though at 1,030 kilometres (640 mi) it is closest to Cape Hatteras, North Carolina), under the leadership of gover- nor William Sayle, on the west bank of the Ashley River, a few miles northwest of the present-day city center. It was soon predicted by Anthony Ashley-Cooper, one of the Lords Proprietors, to become a “great port towne,” a destiny the city quickly fulfilled. In 1680 the settlement was moved east of the Ashley River to the peninsula be- tween the Ashley and Cooper rivers. Not only was this location more defensible, but it offered access to a fine natural harbor.

Among these were free people of color, born France (both of whom contested England’s claims to the in the West Indies of alliances and marriages between region), and pirates.

As the relationship between the colonists and Britain de- teriorated, Charles Town became a focal point in the en- suing American Revolution. It was twice the target of British attacks. At every stage the British strategy as- sumed the existence of a large base of Loyalist supporters who would rally to the king’s forces given some military support.[17] In late March 1776, South Carolina President and Com- mander in Chief, John Rutledge, learned that a large British naval force was moving toward Charles Town. To defend the city, he ordered the construction of Fort Sulli- van (now Ft. Moultrie), on Sullivan’s Island overlooking the main shipping channel into Charleston Harbor.

recent tariff acts. Soon Federal soldiers were dispensed to Charleston’s forts; and five United States Coast Guard Cutters were detached to Charleston Harbor “to take pos- session of any vessel arriving from a foreign port, and de- fend her against any attempt to dispossess the Customs Officers of her custody until all the requirements of law have been complied with.” This federal action became known as the Charleston incident. The state’s politicians worked on a compromise law in , DC to grad- ually reduce the tariffs.[21] By 1840, the Market Hall and Sheds, where fresh meat and produce were brought daily, became a hub of com- mercial activity. The slave trade also depended on the port of Charleston, where ships could be unloaded and the slaves bought and sold. Although the international Cannon on display at The Battery in downtown Charleston African slave trade had ended in 1808, the domestic trade was booming. More than one million slaves were trans- ported from the Upper South to the Deep South in the antebellum years as cotton plantations were widely de- veloped through what became known as the Black Belt. Many slaves were transported in the coastwise slave trade, with slave ships stopping at ports such as Charleston.

These cities combined with other incorporated and unincorporated areas surrounding the city of Charleston form the Charleston-North Charleston Urban Area with a population of 548,404 as of 2010.[56] The metropolitan statistical area also includes a separate and much smaller urban area within Berkeley County, Moncks Corner (with a 2000 population of 9,123). The traditional parish system persisted until the Reconstruction Era, when counties were imposed. Nevertheless, traditional parishes still exist in various capacities, mainly as public service districts. The city of Charleston which was originally defined by the limits Damage left from in 1989 of the Parish of St. Philip & St. Michael, now also includes parts of St. James’ Parish, St. George’s Parish, St. Andrew’s Parish, and St. John’s Parish, although the 1.3.2 Climate last two are mostly still incorporated rural parishes.

Dewpoint in the summer ranges from 67.8 °F (20 °C) to 71.4 °F (22 °C).[51] Charleston was hit by a large tornado in 1761, which tem- porarily emptied the Ashley River, and sank five offshore warships.[52] Charleston City Hall is open to tourists for free historical tours.

The city has several major hospi- tals located in the downtown area: Medical University of South Carolina Medical Center (MUSC), Ralph H. John- son VA Medical Center, and Roper Hospital. MUSC is the state’s first school of medicine, the largest medical university in the state, and the sixth oldest continually operating school of medicine in the United States. The downtown medical district is experiencing rapid growth of biotechnology and medical research industries coupled with substantial expansions of all the major hospitals. Additionally, more expansions are planned or underway at another major hospital located in the West Ashley por- tion of the city: Bon Secours-St Francis Xavier Hospital.

1.6.2 Police department 1.7 Crime

The City of Charleston Police Department, with a total of 452 sworn officers, 137 civilians and 27 reserve police officers, is South Carolina’s largest police department.[62] Their procedures on cracking down on drug use and gang violence in the city are used as models to other cities to do the same. According to the final 2005 FBI Crime Re- ports, Charleston crime level is worse than the national average in almost every major category.[63] Greg Mullen, the former Deputy Chief of the Virginia Beach, Virginia Police Department, serves as the current Chief of the Charleston Police Department. The former Charleston police chief was Reuben Greenberg who resigned August 12, 2005. Greenberg was credited with creating a polite police force that kept police brutality well in check, even as it developed a visible presence in community policing and a significant reduction in crime rates.[64] Charleston Police Department police transporter 14 CHAPTER 1.

Pink House

Pink House is a historic house and art gallery at 17 Chalmers Street in Charleston, South Carolina that is one of the oldest buildings in South Carolina and the oldest building in Charleston. The house was built between 1694 and 1712 of pinkish Bermuda stone by John Breton in the city’s French Quar- ter. The date of the building has been the subject of dis- pute. Two local historians fixed the date as 1712,[1] but a construction date as late as 1745 has been suggested.[2] The tile gambrel roof dates to the eighteenth century. The building was a tavern in the 1750s. James Gordon was the owner of the house by the 1780s. The artist Alice R. Huger Smith used the house as a studio in the early twentieth century. In the 1930s the house was restored by Mr. and Mrs. Victor Morawetz. Currently, the house features an art gallery.[3]

Old Slave Mart

The Old Slave Mart is a building located at 6 Chalmers Street in Charleston, South Carolina that once housed an antebellum slave auction gallery.[3] Constructed in 1859, the building is believed to be the last extant slave auction facility in South Carolina. In 1975, the Old Slave Mart was added to the National Register of Historic Places for its role in Charleston’s African-American history. Today, the building houses the Old Slave Mart Museum.[1][4] The Old Slave Mart was originally part of a known as Ryan’s Mart, which covered a large enclosed lot between Chalmers and Queen streets. The market was established in 1856 by Charleston sheriff Thomas Ryan, after a citywide ban on public slave auctions made private facilities necessary. Slave auctions were held at the site until approximately 1863; in 1865, the oc- cupied Charleston and closed Ryan’s Mart. The Old Slave Mart Museum has operated on and off since 1938.[4]

Fort Sumter

Fort Sumter is a Third System masonry sea fort lo- cated in Charleston Harbor, South Carolina. The fort is best known as the site upon which the shots that started the American Civil War were fired, at the Battle of Fort Sumter on April 12, 1861.[4][5] In 1966, the site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[3]

7.1 Construction

Named after General Thomas Sumter, Revolutionary War hero, Fort Sumter was built following the War of 1812, as one of a series of fortifications on the south- ern U.S. coast to protect the harbors. Construction be- gan in 1829,[6] and the structure was still unfinished in 1861, when the Civil War began. Seventy thousand tons of granite were imported from New England to build up a sand bar in the entrance to Charleston Harbor, which the site dominates. The fort was a five-sided brick struc- ture, 170 to 190 feet (52 to 58 m) long, with walls 5 feet (1.5 m) thick, standing 50 feet (15.2 m) over the low tide mark. It was designed to house 650 men and 135 guns in three tiers of gun emplacements, although it was never filled near its full capacity.

No attempt was made to return the fire for more than two hours. The fort’s sup- ply of ammunition was not suited for the task; also, there were no fuses for their explosive shells, which means that they could not explode. Only solid iron balls could be used against the Rebel batteries. At about 7:00 A.M., Abner Doubleday, the fort’s second in command, was given the honor of firing the Union’s first shot, in defense of the fort. He missed, in part because Major Anderson did not use the guns mounted on the highest tier, the barbette tier (where the guns could engage the confederate batteries better), where the gunners would be more exposed to Confederate fire. The firing continued all day. The Union fired slowly to conserve ammunition. At night the fire from the fort stopped, but the Confeder- ates still lobbed an occasional shell into Sumter. On Sat- urday, April 13, the fort was surrendered and evacuated. During the attack, the Union colors fell. Lt. Norman J. Hall risked life and limb to put them back up, burning off his eyebrows permanently. A Confederate soldier bled to death having been wounded by a misfiring cannon. One Union soldier died and another was mortally wounded during the 47th shot of a 100 shot salute, allowed by the Confederacy. Afterwards the salute was shortened to 50 shots. Accounts, such as in the famous diary of Mary Chesnut, describe Charleston residents along what is now known as The Battery, sitting on balconies and drinking 1861, inside the fort flying the Confederate Flag salutes to the start of the hostilities.

After the devastating bombardment, both Major Gen- eral Quincy A. Gillmore and Rear Admiral John A. Dahlgren, now commanding the South Atlantic Blockad- ing Squadron, determined to launch a boat assault on Fort Sumter for the night of September 8–9, 1863. Cooper- ation between the Army and Navy was poor. Dahlgren refused to place his sailors and marines under the com- mand of an army officer, so two flotillas set out towards Fort Sumter that night. The army flotilla was detained off Morris Island by the low tide.

U.S. Army worked to restore it as a useful military in- stallation. The damaged walls were re-leveled to a lower height and partially rebuilt. The third tier of gun emplace- ments was removed. Eleven of the original first-tier gun rooms were restored with 100-pounder Parrott rifles. From 1876 to 1897, Fort Sumter was used only as an unmanned lighthouse station. The start of the Spanish- American War prompted renewed interest in its military use and reconstruction commenced on the facilities that had further eroded over time. A new massive concrete blockhouse-style installation was built in 1898 inside the original walls. Named “Battery Huger” in honor of Revo- lutionary War General Isaac Huger, it never saw combat. One hundred and forty seven years after it was sent, a rolled up telegraphic message was found and eventually given to a museum in Charleston, S.C. The telegram was dated April fourteenth, 1861 from the Governor of South Carolina to Gazaway Bugg Lamar in New York with a most interesting message, part of which is told below: (for the complete text see “External Links”, Ft.
