Henry's on the Market earns the Market's first Preservation Society placard

Henry's on the Market, at 54 North Market St. across from the Charleston City Market, will be the first building on the Market to receive a historic placard from the Preservation Society of Charleston. The ceremony is Friday, Nov. 6.

Why this matters here

A restaurant that has held the same block since 1932 is getting the kind of plaque usually hung on a house. Longevity is its own marketing, and Henry's has 94 years of it.
