The Charles named a 2026 Top Project Winner
The Charles is proud to announce it has been recognized by SCBiz as a 2026 Top Project, an honor that reflects the vision, innovation, and collaboration behind this luxury waterfront community. Developed by The Beach Company, a leader in residential and commercial real estate brokerage, development, and property management, The Charles represents a thoughtful approach to design, construction, and community impact along Charleston’s historic peninsula.
“We’re honored that The Charles has received this recognition, as it reflects the innovation and collaboration that went into every aspect of the project,” said Dan Doyle, President of The Beach Company. “From design and construction to sustainability and community impact, this achievement is a testament to the dedication of everyone involved in bringing this vision to life.”
Presented annually, the SCBiz Top Projects program recognizes the most notable building and construction work across South Carolina, highlighting projects that both honor the past and shape the future. The Charles, a 23-unit luxury waterfront rental community located along the Ashley River in the South of Broad neighborhood, was selected for its architectural excellence, innovative construction, and positive contribution to the surrounding community.
Projects were evaluated based on criteria including degree of difficulty, creativity in design, construction innovation, collaboration among project teams, and a commitment to sustainability.
“The 2026 Top Projects honorees are leaving a notable mark on the landscape of South Carolina,” said Suzanne Fischer-Huettner, managing director of BridgeTower Media/SCBIZ. “SCBIZ is pleased to shine a spotlight on these individuals and organizations in the real estate community for their outstanding achievements.”
