MYSTERY:  A Lowcountry building decked out for the holidays

This week’s mystery comes to us from a loyal reader who said the building almost screams Christmas – even without the wreathes on the front of the building.  Hint: It’s in the greater Lowcountry area and we expect it might be a tough one.  Send your guess to:  editor@charlestoncurrents.com.  And don’t forget to include your name and the town in which you live.

Our previous Mystery Photo

Our Dec. 10 mystery, “Clues in photo might give away where it is,” had enough clues to get a lot of correct guesses from alert readers.  They knew the photo showed the Charleston Maritime Center along the bank of the Cooper River near the S.C. Aquarium.

A hearty holiday congratulations with sugar plums to these fine sleuths: Chris Brooks and Carroll Schweers, both of Mount Pleasant; Chalmers Mikell of Orangeburg; Adam Collias, Justin White and Archie Burkel, all of James Island; Diane Scher, Carol Fishman, James McMahan, Mike Sottak, Kristina Wheeler  and Kerry Pate, all of Charleston; Chuck Boyd of Hanahan; Roger Kirby of Johns Island; George Graf of Palmyra, Va.; and Zach Story of North Charleston.

Burkel provided more context: “I believe the building is technically called “The Maritime Center.” It is the area from which sightseeing boats pick up and drop off passengers.  Its outside area is often used as an event venue. Offices pertaining to maritime issues are on the second floor, along with a room for large meetings.”
