Catfiddle Street
Cafiddle Street is a newly built infill development in downtown Charleston. It was begun in 2007 with the renovation of 266 Ashley and the construction of 21 and 23 Catfiddle in the rear. Adjacent parcels were added in subsequent years, with a number of new houses designed in collaboration between George Holt and Andrew Gould.
In 2014, additional parcels were pieced together by developer Reid Burgess, allowing considerable expansion of the project, which was re-platted as a PUD subdivision named Catfiddle Street. Urban Ergonomics (George Holt and Reid Burgess) designed the urbanism/land plan which ultimately would include 24 residential lots on just under one acre.
New buildings were designed by several designers in collaboration with Urban Ergonomics, ensuring that the houses all looked different, yet were consistent with the Catfiddle Street design standards. Contributing designers and architects included George Holt, Andrew Gould, Bevan & Liberatos, Kenny Craft Studios, American Vernacular, and Randolph Martz.
