Cobblestone streets, generous sidewalks, and a village green create a Main Street atmosphere in a city otherwise defined by resort sprawl. The retail district anchors an authentic neighborhood where residents walk to morning coffee, evening dinners, and weekend markets without touching a car key.
History
Myrtle Beach Air Force Base closed in 1993 after 50 years of operation. The Myrtle Beach Air Force Base Redevelopment Authority spent more than a decade planning the reuse before the Market Common lifestyle district opened in 2008, widely recognized as one of the most successful military base reuse projects in the Southeast.
