The park received the 2007 Landmark Award from the American Society of Landscape Architects and the National Trust for Historic Preservation. The most iconic fountain there is known as the “Pineapple Fountain," which symbolizes the hospitality of the Lowcountry.

Rainbow Row
Rainbow Row is one of the most visited and photographed places in Charleston. These 13 brightly-colored houses can be found along East Bay Street on the Charleston Harbor. In the 18th century, the houses held shops on the lower levels with living quarters above. However, after the Civil War, these homes fell into disrepair. In the 1920s, the homes began being restored, which is when the owners along the street started painting their homes bright pastel colors. Rainbow Row is one of the most unique places in Charleston and continues to attract visitors from around the globe.
