Developed by Claycon Development, the plan delivers a carefully curated tenant mix opportunity arranged to capture daily needs, convenience, dining, and financial services in a single, walkable environment. West Ashley is the growth engine of the City of Charleston. City planners estimate the incorporated West Ashley population reached approximately 71,854 by 2025--representing a 6% increase since 2020, more than double the national average of 2.8% over the same period. Charleston as a whole recorded 162,499 residents in 2024, with West Ashley housing nearly half of that total. With 85,000 residential units estimated within a five-mile radius of the broader West Ashley circle, the rooftop density to support a full-service retail center is not approaching--it is already here. Marketplace at Essex Farms is positioned at the intersection of everything that drives successful retail in today's market: population growth, rooftop density, traffic infrastructure investment, a dominant grocery anchor, and a diverse daily-needs tenant mix. With 47,000+ vehicles per day on Glenn McConnell Parkway, two miles to I-526, 6,000+ homes in the pipeline, and a newly signalized entrance, this is a once-in-a-market-cycle opportunity to lease into the defining retail address for West Ashley's next chapter.
