CLUE: There appear to be few clues for this edition’s Mystery Photo. There’s some rocks, which apparently means this building is located on water, but no other geographic features. Even the architecture is difficult to pinpoint. Tell us where you think this building is located by sending you answer to elliott@brack.net, and be sure to tell us where you live.

15.0410.mysteryThe correct answer to last week’s Mystery Photo came in thick and fast, as readers easily identified Hank’s Seafood restaurant in Charleston, S.C., sent in by Karen Garner of Dacula. First one with the correct answer was Billy Chism, the editor of the Cleveland newspaper.

Then came the onslaught, with Ruthy Lachman Paul telling us: “Charleston’s city atmosphere is known for its southern hospitality and its elegant charm. Old City streets are paved with bricks which walking horses carriages preserved historic buildings. Some of the estates are preserved and most impressive. In one of the preserved building you can enjoy Hank’s Seafood Restaurant that’s located in Historic District.”

Others identifying the mystery included Susan McBrayer, Sugar Hill; Becky Munteanu, Suwanee; and Michael Green of Milton, who added: “Located on Hayne Street, Hank’s has been voted as having the best seafood in Charleston.”

More correct answers were from Eddie Copeland, Alpharetta; Layla Corley, Duluth; Frank Studer, Simpsonville S.C.; Howard N. Williams, Jr., Snellville; and Richard Lux, Trickum;

Bob Foreman of Grayson told us:’ Hayne Street is a well known street in downtown Charleston, S.C. Hanks Seafood is a well known business on Hayne Street. And the Sable Palm (or Palmetto Tree) is the state tree of South Carolina and is on the state flag. Sometimes, you make these too easy.  Although, I admit last week’s photo from Bath England stumped me.”

More correct identities came from Diana Preston, Lilburn; Brenda Kukla, Suwanee; Jim Savadelis, Duluth; Tayna Moore, Norcross; Hoyt Tuggle of Buford; Jane Bane of Buford; Lynn Naylor, Atlanta; and Chuck Cimarik of Norcross, who points out: “It looks like Charleston SC and you even had the address in the picture.” Mimi Anderson, Peachtree Corners, tells us: “This is one of my favorite wonderful restaurants in Charleston, S.C. It’s right down near the riverfront park.” That’s 20 getting it right, near a record! Which means the mystery was far too easy!
