an historic data recovery study of portions of the residential wharf-front neighborhood of Gadsdenboro (1850-1880), city of Charleston, South Carolina

"This report presents the results of an historic data recovery study of portions of the historic waterfront neighborhood of Gadsdenboro during the 1850-1880 time period. Located in Charleston, South Carolina, southeast of the intersection of Calhoun and Washington Streets, the study area includes four square blocks within the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) 'Charleston Old and Historic District: Eligible Boundary Expansion.' The study area, which is slated for the development of a mult-use [sic] commercial and residential development, became subject to intensive study due to anticipated development-related permit applications, and oversight of the South Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) due to concerns regarding Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. Research was conducted by Barr & Associates on behalf of East West Concord Park, LLC of Charleston, South Carolina between April 2008 and July 2009. Historic recovery efforts resulted in the study of 333 households made up of 1,218 free persons and 122 enslaved individuals who lived within ... the current project boundaries. Additional research in those portions of historic Gadsdenboro which fell outside of the specific study areas resulted in the identification of 1,524 free individuals and 132 enslaved individuals. Overall, a total of 2,996 individual residents of Gadsdenboro were identified. Intensive research was conducted for those who lived within the four study areas, and small biographies were constructed for each household."--V. 1, p. v
