The College of Charleston continues its efforts to partner with a diverse group of community members to help guide the commemoration and development efforts of Coming Street Commons, a planned student residence hall at 106 Coming St. in downtown Charleston.
The Community Engagement Council (CEC) will reconvene on Thursday, May 14, 2026, for further discussion and collaboration.
The CEC meeting will start at 6 p.m. in the Alumni Center, School of Education, 86 Wentworth St. (enter through the courtyard on St. Philip St.).
The CEC plays a central role in supporting the College’s efforts in honoring and memorializing both the former potter’s field and the former YWCA, providing insight and feedback on potential events, interpretative approaches to the footprint of the construction site and commemoration efforts associated with this project.
Those interested in the project can read a list of frequently asked questions and answers on the project website and join the mailing list at the bottom of the Get Involved webpage.
Following the May 14 meeting, the next CEC meeting is scheduled for June 4, 2026.
