Formerly Dock Street, renamed Queen Street in honor of Queen Caroline of Ansbach after her death in 1737.

'King Charles II granted the chartered Province of Carolina to eight of his loyal friends, known as the Lords Proprietors, on March 24, 1663. In 1670, Governor William Sayle arranged for several shiploads of settlers from Bermuda and Barbados [slaves and their owners.] These settlers established what was then called Charles Town at Albemarle Point, on the west bank of the Ashley River, a few miles northwest of the present-day city center. Charles Town became the first comprehensively planned town in the Thirteen Colonies. Its governance, settlement, and development was to follow a visionary plan known as the Grand Model prepared for the Lords Proprietors by John Locke. Because the Carolina's Fundamental Constitutions was never ratified, however, Charles Town was never incorporated during the colonial period. Instead, local ordinances were passed by the provincial government, with day-to-day administration handled by the wardens and vestries of St Philip's and St Michael's Anglican parishes." (Wikipedia)

*It is worth noting that the editors of the Wikipedia article on Charleston largely gloss over the fact that Charleston was founded as a slave society by the landless children and grand children of the Barbadian slave lords, when that Island ran out of land to distribute among heirs.
