Downtown Charleston’s Dockside Condominiums just declared bankruptcy, leaving residents in limbo after a sudden evacuation earlier this year. With nearly $14 million in debt—mostly from demolition and cleanup—the association’s financial collapse highlights the tough reality facing aging coastal buildings. Many homeowners are now suing, saying they weren’t told about serious structural problems before moving in. This mess is raising big questions about transparency, safety, and who’s really responsible when a building fails. If you lived in Dockside or a similar spot, how would you want things handled? #Business #Charleston #Dockside
