While there’s no doubt that the statement reflects a bit of dry humor, in the course of planning the Federation’s 2017 Winter Meeting, we’ve found that the pride South Carolinians and Charlestonians have in their state and its oldest city is fully justified. And, we’re here to tell you that everything you’ve heard about Charleston is true! Don’t take our word for it though. Charleston has long been called America’s most historic city and is recognized as a premier destination for its friendly people, prime coastal setting, rich history, beautiful architecture, renowned cuisine, cel- ebrated shopping scene, and flourishing arts community. Recently, readers of Travel + Leisure magazine voted Charleston the World’s Best City in the 2016 World’s Best Awards. Charleston is the first U.S. city to earn the ranking, though for the fourth consecutive year, the readers of Travel + Leisure ranked the Charleston area the Number 1 City in the U.S. and Canada. In addition, the 2016 Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards ranked Charleston the Number 1 small city destination in the U.S. for the sixth consecutive year. Having just emerged from a multimillion-dollar upgrade, the Belmond Charleston Place hotel is just as fabulous. Located at the very heart of downtown Charleston, in the historic district and within walking distance of many of the city’s major attractions and outstanding restaurants, the Belmond Charleston Place makes every guest feel part of this great southern city. The hotel is home to all the amenities that our members appreciate, including a full spa, state of the art health club, heated rooftop pool, and The Club – a private concierge level. The Charleston Grill, one of the best restaurants in the city, makes its home in the hotel as do a number of beautiful boutiques, including Gucci, Louis Vuitton, L’Occitane, Kate Spade, St. John, and Tommy Bahama. In addition, Charleston Place features the recently expanded Thoroughbred Club and the hotel’s new sports bar, Meeting at Market. Just across the street is the Riviera Theater, Charleston Place’s beautifully restored art deco movie theater, which will be the scene of several of our events. Perhaps best of all, we will be the only conference at the hotel. In response to membership surveys, the 2017 Winter Meeting will be a day and a half shorter than what has been the recent norm, and it will be our first domestic meeting not held at a resort location. These two factors have ne- cessitated a few changes to some of the traditional events, but rest assured we have packed our days and nights with quality offerings to bring you the same value you have come to expect. Also, if you plan to come in earlier or stay later, perhaps for golf or a visit to one of the barrier islands, please note that while we have negotiated a fantastic rate at Charleston Place, it is dramatically higher outside our room block allocation. So, please do plan accordingly. Our Welcome Reception will kick the conference off on the evening of Monday, March 6th with cocktails and heavy hors d’oeuvres at The William Aiken House. Located three-quarters of a mile from Charleston Place, William Aiken House, a National Historic Landmark, is an 1807 Federal Adamesque wood-framed house with a classic two-story piazza and beau- tiful grounds. Its charm and sophistication make it the perfect place to welcome you to Charleston. You can conclude your evening here or make Aiken House your meeting point before heading off to one of Charleston’s many great restaurants. Page 4 Dine-Around Night, Tuesday, March 7th, is your best opportunity to get out on the town for a visit to one of Charleston’s heralded restaurants, and the Federation convention team will be booking tables at a number of our favorite places. You’ll have the opportunity to sign up for a spot at one of those once you arrive in Charleston or you can make your own plans. Be aware, though, that you’ll need to make restaurant reservations well in advance. Even at lunch, we’ve seen very long lines at some of the hottest spots. The traditional Dessert Party will follow that evening, but expect a few fun twists. Join us Wednesday night, March 8th, as we gather to honor our President and First Lady, Mills and Carol Anne Gallivan. The Bow Tie Ball brings back this fun concept from the 2010 Annual Meeting in Munich, which was chaired by Mills and Carol Anne. This lovely dinner dance will feature the Voltage Brothers, a well-known, old school Southern party band. And, in a nod to Mills and his penchant for bow ties, attire for gentleman is the tuxedo with colorful bow ties highly encouraged. On our final evening, Thursday, March 9th, we’ll make a short trip across the peninsula to Lowndes Grove Plantation for our Lowcountry Oyster Roast and Seafood Boil. At Lowndes Grove, we’ll be surrounded by beau- tiful live oak groves and peaceful views of the Ashley River as we enjoy a relaxing and elegantly casual evening of seafood and modern takes on classic Southern dishes. Circa 1786, Lowndes Grove Plantation is the city of Charleston’s last great waterfront estate. As we wrap up the week’s social events, we’re quite confident you’ll be thinking about your next trip to Charleston. Of course, we’ll keep you busy with plenty of enjoyable outings during the days as well. Get your bearings at the beginning of the week with a walking tour or carriage ride led by one of Charleston’s licensed tour guides. The Tour Guide Training Manual is a jam-packed 500-page tome. Guides are tested on its contents and then required to undergo a field exam. We’ve also ar- ranged a few tours that offer a bit more than what the average tourist sees. These include a visit Behind the Scenes at Drayton Hall, an Excursion to Middleton Place, tours of the Nathaniel Russell and Edmondston-Alston Houses, and an expedition to the Civil War submarine H.L. Hunley (specially selected for the spouses who don’t knit). Though it’s hard to do in Charles- ton, if you need a break from history, you can enjoy our Charleston Art Gallery Tour or the King Street Shopping Outing. Clark Hudson has planned an outstanding program for you. The Honorable Alex Sanders, one of the FDCC highest rated speakers ever, will welcome us to Charleston, and the Trial Masters Program will kick off the continuing education program at the Riviera Theater. This year’s Federation Trial Masters will be demonstrating voir dire and opening statement tech- niques in front of a mock jury of Millennials, all equipped with real-time polling devices. The plenary program features segments on reptile theory developments, the latest technology strategy, impactful closing arguments, responding to active shooter scenarios, and the legal and social aftermath of the shooting that took place on June 17, 2015 at Charleston’s Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church. Of course, our sections have been hard at work preparing stimulating presentations for their meetings as well. Clark closes out the meeting on Friday morning with two highly inspirational speakers. Gunnery Sergeant Nick Popaditch, USMC (Ret.), a recipient of the Silver Star and the author of Once a Marine, will share his leadership lessons from the battlefield and provide his unique insights on dealing with adversity. Then, Canadian Supreme Court Justice, the Honorable Rosalie Abella will deliver our keynote address. Justice Abella, often regarded as one of Canada’s national treasures, was born in a displaced persons camp in Germany in the aftermath of World War II and rose from those very humble beginnings to serve as a Justice of Canada’s highest court. You won’t want to miss the opportunity to hear Justice

THE MOVEMENT OF ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS WITHIN CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University and the Graduate School of the College of Charleston In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Historic Preservation by Laura Ashley Burghardt May 2009 Accepted by: Jonathan H. Poston, Committee Chair Ashley Robbins Wilson Ralph C. Muldrow Robert D. Russell, Jr., Ph.D. i ABSTRACT The movement of architectural elements from one building to another within Charleston, South Carolina, is an integral part of historic preservation in the city. From the earliest days of the city’s historic preservation movement in the 1920s, preservationists have understood the importance of preserving elements of historic structures. In the early twentieth century, architectural elements were threatened by antique dealers and collectors of architecture who sought to purchase decorative elements, even out of standing houses. Buildings were also threatened with demolition as gas stations and other modern structures were constructed.
