Tomorrow kicks off a whole new year of CHStoday headlines. In 2018, we’ve covered everything from the mysterious Bridge to Nowhere to a full guide of outdoor patios + porches. So, what’s next for 2019?

We asked you to peer into your crystal ball + predict future local headlines you think you’ll read in CHStoday in 2019– and more than 12 of you gave us 20+ predictions.

Here are a few of our favorite predictions for Charleston in 2019, submitted by you:

🔮 “A boom in the esports industry in CHS.” – William S.
🔮 “CofC men’s basketball team goes to NCAA tournament for the second straight year. The Citadel has a winning record in football. Lexi Thompson wins the US Open at Charleston CC.” – dmcneal52
🔮 “New train station in North Charleston. Would like to see this completed in 2019!!” – Billy O.
🔮 “I think Charleston is due for a residential housing price correction… for both home sales and rentals.” – Beth S.
🔮Charleston forever named best American city after ranked No. 1 for almost a decade.” – @coriolankevin

Needless to say, the majority of y’all predicted continued construction downtown, further flooding, heavier traffic, and the need for home prices to change.

But as we reflect on the challenges we faced this past year– and we may be naive in doing so– we’re putting on our rose-colored glasses looking toward 2019, focusing on the positive changes our community can accomplish.

Here’s to having hope that we work to put one foot in front of the other and continue to work toward a stronger, connected Charleston.

See y’all in the New Year.
