Mount Pleasant context
Bridges connected this side of the Cooper River to Charleston only in the twentieth century, and Mount Pleasant grew fast afterward, so most of the housing stock here is newer planned-community construction sitting close to marsh and creek, built up on pilings or raised slabs rather than old masonry -- which means storm-surge exposure, salt air, and a high water table drive material choices more than age does.
