The September issue of Southern Living magazine highlights The Upper King Design District (UKDD) in the cover article “10 Reasons to Visit Charleston Again.”
Assistant Travel Editor Cassandra M. Vanhooser writes “Shoppers have long been seduced by the wares of Charleston’s
merchants, with the crème de la crème located on King Street. But these
days, the spotlight is on Upper King, that section of the thoroughfare
marked by Spring Street to the north and Calhoun to the south.”
“Upper King is really the heart of Charleston right now,” says Susan Lucas, who implements the marketing program for UKDD. “It’s very sophisticated. We think of it as the SoHo of the South.”
Upper King Design District is one of Southern Living’s top Charleston shopping destinations and Vanhooser felt it was “impossible to list them all, but Lesesne, B’zar, Dwelling, Maine Cottage and Cupcake rank among our favorites.”
