Mount Pleasant honors local property improvements at 2025 Community Improvement Awards
Summary
The Mount Pleasant planning commission recognized residential, industrial and mixed-use projects in the city’s 2025 Community Improvement Awards, honoring homeowners, businesses and student photographers who documented the work.
At the March 9 meeting, Manuela Pedigo presented the Planning Commission’s 2025 Community Improvement Awards, recognizing property owners and teams who invested in local buildings.
Pedigo presented the residential award for renovations at 111 Maxwell to owner Christine Fowler, noting a new roof, windows and a 20-by-8 covered deck. An industrial award recognized Wilson Steel Fab and Machine at 1217 North Mission Street; Nick Wilson accepted remarks describing the project and a planned expansion. A mixed-use award went to owners Danny Leonard and Chelsea House for renovation of 500 South Mission Street, which involved façade, roofing and storefront work and included support from the DDA facade improvement and streetscape incentive program.
Pedigo also acknowledged student photographers from the local graphics arts program (GITC) — Brady Edwards, Phoenix French and Mason Haynes — and their instructor Andrew Langley for documenting the projects.
Commissioners and attendees congratulated the winners and posed for photos; the awards highlight private investment and local economic development.
