Our previous Mystery Photo
Our Aug. 24 photo, “Unusual building,” shows a dome house built on the northern end of Sullivan’s Island to withstand hurricanes. Congratulations to those who identified it: Boykin Beard of Camden; Chris Brooks, David Lupo and Mary Kaplan, all of Mount Pleasant; Jay Altman of Columbia; Marnie Huger of Richmond, Va.; George Graf of Palmyra, Va.; Daniel Walters of Moncks Corner; Allan Peel of San Antonio, Texas; Pat Deussing of Apex, N.C.; Joe Mendelsohn and Delia A. Smith, both of Charleston; Charlie Morrison, now of Mashpee, Mass; Carol Ann Smalley of James island; and Karen Buerkle.
Lupo said the house is known as “Eye of the Storm” for being “constructed after Hurricane Hugo destroyed the previous house on the lot in 1989. The owners’ son happened to be in the business of constructing concrete buildings, and he along with a local architect came up with the oval dome design, which they hoped would survive the next storm to come along.”
