We love all the magazines we publish, but we think - and we suspect you’ll agree - that the Old Village is a special place. Some residents even refer to it as the heartbeat of Mount Pleasant. Inside this issue, you’ll find editorials about the people, places and events that helped create the rich history of the Old Village. For example, our feature about the history of the Old Village street signs brings to light the influential folks of the past who helped bring about the lifestyle we have today. In addition to having unique history, the Old Village also fosters new businesses and innovative ideas. We think you will agree when you read the article on the new art galleries in the Old Village and profiles on fabulous restaurants in and around the area.
