Rainbow Row in Charleston, SC, is a famous, picturesque stretch of 13 historic Georgian rowhouses on East Bay Street, known for their distinct pastel colors, making it one of the city's most photographed landmarks. Originally built in the 1740s as merchant homes and shops, the area fell into disrepair in the post-Civil War but was revitalized in the 1930s and 40s when residents, inspired by preservationist Dorothy Legge, began painting them bright, Caribbean-inspired hues, creating a symbol of Charleston's historic charm and preservation efforts.
