Located in the heart of downtown Charleston, SC, 167 Raw Oyster Bar and Restaurant offers diners an exceptional culinary experience in an inviting atmosphere. Voted the “Best Seafood Restaurant in South Carolina” 10 years running, this venue has a hidden jem in the back: a beautiful open air courtyard.

Situated between 2 buildings, an additional 26 patrons can enjoy the seasonal variations of South Carolina in perfect comfort. Grand Strand Outdoor Living replaced an existing canvas retractable awning with a 4-Zone StruXure Pivot 6XL Pergola system - including fans over the courtyard - and a single zone StruXure Pan 6XL over the bar area. The result offers patrons an enjoyable dining experience year-round, and management an increase in revenue thanks to a newly climate controlled space.

This project gave the owners a significant ROI with the ability to use this space not only on hot days by closing the louvers, but also on rainy days, allowing patrons to be seated under conditions that previously would have rendered the space unusable.
