Charleston plan right to limit some kinds of businesses on East End

Posted:

Charleston's East End is a dynamic, vibrant place with truly amazing potential.

City leaders who are beginning to develop and implement the East End Community Renewal Plan are right to limit what kinds of business can set up shop in the very shadow of the State Capitol.

Strip clubs, porn shops, mini-casinos and the like have no place in the Capitol City, and certainly not on the East End.

We want Charleston to be all that it can be, not a place where cheap thrills trump community.
