Business 'just fine' in the Cannon/Spring Street corridor
The global economy is failing, local businesses are closing down, it's doom and gloom for Charleston isn't it ... isn't it?

Maybe not. At the end of last year, we sent Stella out onto the streets of Charleston with her skateboard to ride around what we like to call the 'Spring & Cannon Corridor' area, and find that there are whole number of thriving businesses which you may not have even known about.
What made them choose that area, rather than the more well known King Street?
In this first of a two part video (part two next week), you get an insight into local businesses that you may have previously overlooked.

Alright Stella, you just made me a) hungry, and b) wanting to dust off my old skateboard and go for a ride. Do you give lessons?

We'll also be joining the area next month when we move down to 125 Cannon Street -- up and coming indeed!

This is a great story, there are tons of new businesses opening up in the Spring Cannon corridor. For more on this and available spaces for lease and sale, check out my blog: www.53cannon.com

Excellent expose Stella! Being a TV host might just be your calling.

Ha! Your new offices are going to be a block from my place. I'll have to come by and pester you to link my reviews.

Super, hip approach to getting the word out about these businesses and the community surrounding them!

Great production Stella-I think you should so a story about sailboat racing during Charleston race week and Mosquito Fleet rowing.
