About this map

Sullivans Island and the coastal defenses of Charleston Harbor define this landscape, anchored by the iconic Fort Moultrie and Fort Sumter National Monument. This survey illustrates the evolving shoreline of the late 1950s, highlighting the integration of historical military sites with a growing residential and recreational coast. Along the Atlantic Ocean, the developing Isle of Palms is connected to the mainland by the Thompson Memorial Bridge, while the inland area shows the rural-to-suburban shift of Mount Pleasant and Snowden.
