The open space and natural, scenic landscape of North Charleston will play a crucial role in the development of North Charleston as the “New American City”. The detailed planning of these spaces will thus be the next step in creating the vision for North Charleston. Taken together, the strong existing recreational assets of the Noisette area, and the new recreational areas proposed in our master plan, will offer a broad range of outdoor and indoor choices. The key changes from the master plan are:

The Riverfront Park will offer the residents of North Charleston significantly improved access to the Cooper River and the Noisette Creek. The initial phase of the Riverfront Park will be a highly flexible outdoor space that can be used for many activities, including family picnics, boating, fishing, large group activities, and passively enjoying the boat traffic on the river. As the park is extended north of the Noisette Creek and eventually connected to the green extension of Montague Avenue, it will have a very strong link to the historic heart of the city.
The Noisette Preserve will be a major environmental and educational resource giving the citizens the opportunity to experience the diverse ecosystems from the mouth of the creek, to the tributaries feeding the creek, to the highland forests along its western borders.
A network of trails, partially along railroad lines that now divide the community, will connect existing and new recreational elements and provide residents with many choices for moving through their community.

Currently, the Noisette area has a series of well loved and utilized parks and recreation facilities that include:

• Park Circle
• Danny Jones Complex / Armory / Exchange Club Park
• Felix Pinckney
• North Park Village
• Whipper Barony
• Ferndale
• Ceramics House
• O’Hear
• Quarterman Lake
• Ralph Hendricks
• Triangle
• Pump House
• Mosstree
