Construction has begun on Ten Mile on Rivers, a 23,000-sf adaptive reuse project in North Charleston.

The project takes a former elementary school built in phases in the 1950s and 1960s and transforms it into 60s-inspired leasable modern office spaces. The space includes 200-sf single executive offices, small- and medium-sized suites, and the ability to combine contiguous spaces up to 12,000 sf.

The overall design of the project incorporates a mid-century modern style with a refreshed facade that introduces new entry elements that infuse a modern design aesthetic in the plain brick building. The interior will feature light-filled spaces with pops of color and textures inspired by the 1960s.

The renovation also includes a new roof and full MEP replacement and the addition of a new 175-space parking lot, which will preserve the 27 grand oak trees that exist onsite. Construction is slated for completion in spring of 2021.
