Seaside Farms, a 500 acre historic plantation in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, is the home of a large family with ownership occurring over four generations. DesignWorks was commissioned to develop a new community plan for Seaside Farms, establishing the appropriate mix of preservation and revenue generation. The new plan addresses the challenge of integrating commercial and residential uses into a cohesive and value enhancing new community. A new creek was created as the central organizing feature of the community, complete with a three mile long waterfront park that links all the residential areas to the village center.
