Charleston Green - what is that ?
Another one of these things about living in Charleston. Everyone talks about "Charleston Green".
But what is it ? It's NOT
- a restaurant
- a community
- a drink
- a lifestyle
- design style
- a park
- a golf course
Guess what? of all things, Charleston green is a paint color.
As history goes, Charleston green is the result of some very creative folks from the reconstruction period of Charleston history. As Charleston was rebuilding the community after the Civil War era, the North sent black paint down to the Southerners. The Southerners decided to brighten things up a bit by adding a splash of yellow into the black paint, thus resulting in Charleston Green. Only a trained eye with bright light can distinguish the difference between the color black and the color of Charleston Green.
