Modernism in the Historic District. Style: Brutalism. A book on Charleston architecture written by preservationists describes this building - which was built 20 years before the book was written - as, “a contemporary rear addition of gray stucco with large tinted glass openings.” Dear preservationists. If it’s 20 years old, and in a style that at the time was 30 years old, it’s not “contemporary.” To say so is to abuse the English language.
