Park Circle: "A WHIMSICAL, WALKABLE NORTH CHARLESTON GEM"
Less than ten miles north of downtown, Park Circle is a lively community with unique character. A top local destination with a distinct neighborhood vibe, Park Circle is a vibrant community that dates back to the early 1900s. The lively dining and nightlife scene centered on East Montague Avenue, includes shows at South of Broadway theater and a craft brewery. The Hunley submarine, which was lost for more than a century, is on display, plus artifacts found onboard when it was discovered. A butterfly garden and disc golf course at Park Circle, and Quarterman Park with a small lake, offer peaceful retreats.
As its name suggests, Park Circle is anchored by a central circular park which is echoed by several other nearby green spaces—including the city’s own disc golf course, which is free to the public.
Known today as North Charleston’s old “Main Street,” Park Circle’s East Montague Ave. is lined with quite a few storefronts and eateries. Grab a cup of coffee, pop into some local shops and snag a bite to eat, all without needing to wander too far in this very walkable area.
