Earlier this month, I co-authored the Noisette Journey to Sustainability Update on behalf of The Noisette Company. I’m proud to have played a role with Noisette and am happy to call the community home.
The Noisette regeneration launched in 2001 to improve the quality of life for residents in the southern section of North Charleston, SC. Covering a 3,000-acre area, a unique public-private partnership between The Noisette Company and the City of North Charleston resulted in the creation of an internationally recognized plan for revitalization. Over a twelve-year period, intense collaboration, a focus on triple bottom line principles, community involvement and strategic implementation resulted in over $500 million in public and private investment. Non-profit infrastructure was established and strengthened to address education, social justice and environmental health issues. Local capacity was established to continue the progression of the plan – a plan that continues to evolve.
