Shopping Nothing defines Southern charm quite like King Street. It is a bustling thoroughfare where Charleston's past and present meet. At more than 300 years old, King Street is the second most historically and architecturally significant street in downtown Charleston, after Meeting Street. It was named for King Charles II of England and was a main route in the early city of Charles Towne. King Street was used predominantly as a path for coming in and out of town until the mid-1700s, as it was not originally designed to serve as commercial property. That was reserved to locations closer to the water and wharf docks for port trading. In the late-18th to early-19th centuries, the newly constructed railroad terminus allowed King Street to thrive as a retail corridor and commercial center. Hosting a variety of high-end specialty shops, it surpassed every other location, including East Bay Street and the wharves.
