About Charleston

Charleston is a neighborhood on Staten Island's South Shore, and its gone under significant transformation from its early days as a small village known as Androvetteville. This area, rich in history and named for its early settler families and later for Charles Kreischer, reflects a blend of past and present. Once dominated by farmland and the Kreischer Brick Manufactory, Charleston has evolved into a community with a diverse demographic and a burgeoning commercial presence. The neighborhood's development has been marked by the introduction of shopping centers, and the notable Keischer Mansion, adding layers of residential and commercial appeal. Today, Charleston offers a mix of suburban peace and modern conveniences, making it appealing to a vast array of individuals.
