Daniel Island recognized by National Arbor Day Foundation
Wednesday, August 29, 2007
Daniel Island was recognized by The National Arbor Day Foundation for its efforts to preserve trees while developing. Here is an excerpt from arborday.org:
The Daniel Island Club in Charleston, S.C., developed by The Daniel Island Company. Ranked 29th out of 100 courses nationwide by Golf Week as one of the Best Real Estate Courses, The Daniel Island Club is an excellent example of what can be achieved when developers and architects work towards a common goal of saving trees. With the help of arborists, developers were able to save 80 percent of the trees initially suggested for removal. Additional native species were planted to enhance the design of the course.
