The Cooper River and Ashley River converge at the historic tip of the peninsula to form Charleston Harbor, a landscape defined by its maritime reaches and complex waterway network. This 2017 survey details the dense urban core of Charleston, featuring institutions like the Coll of Charleston and Medical Univ of SC. Beyond the main city, the map traces the suburban and industrial growth of North Charleston and Mount Pleasant, connected by the massive Arthur Ravenel Junior Bridge. Cultural and genealogical history is preserved in the cluster of burial grounds including Magnolia Cem, Saint Lawrence Cem, and the Hebrew Cem. In the harbor, Fort Sumter National Monument stands as a sentinel near Patriots Point, while the surrounding marshlands and reaches like Rebellion Reach and Hog Island Reach illustrate the intricate tidal geography of the South Carolina Lowcountry.
