The Whispering Pines Motel, which hosted traveling African-Americans and performers at Charlie’s Place during the 1940s, 50s and early 60s, is almost ready for customers again. The ad hoc Charlie’s Place Committee, composed of interested local residents and city staff, toured the reconstructed property last week. The nightclub known as Charlie’s Place is long gone, but the motel operated by Charlie and Sarah Fitzgerald, as well as their home, remains. The city sought to preserve the rich musical history of that time and place.

The re-created motel units feature screen doors and window air conditioners, as they would have 60-plus years ago, and that's the subject of our Photos of the Week. For more images, see https://www.cityofmyrtlebeach.com/i_want_to/find/photos_of_the_week/pow072420.php.

Some units have been decorated as a museum to the style of that bygone era, while others will be available to modern tenants as business and community incubators. The outdoor site also serves as a venue for events and activities.

Happy New Year everyone! Reminder that we will be here all night tonight (just like every night), so no reason to drink and drive. Please give us a call to arrange transportation to a destination of your choice, instead of taking the paddy wagon to J Reuben! Its much cheaper in the long run.
