Daniel Island is a master-planned community located on an island of the same name at the northern end of Charleston, South Carolina. Developed by the Daniel Island Company, the project embodies new urbanist principles while providing retail, employment, and a range of housing opportunities. At buildout, expected in 2015, the 4,000-acre (1,619-hectare) development will contain 6,000 homes, two golf courses and a country club, 2 million square feet (185,800 square meters) of office space including a corporate headquarters and regional offices, 1.2 million square feet (111,480 square meters) of retail space, three schools, a marina, and at least 400 acres (162 hectares) of open space.
