This study explores the public building block of antebellum Charleston in the spatial context. By collaborating with the recent spatial studies and historical documents to unveil the issues surrounding the power of place, and the natural and urban landscape, this study reveals that Charleston’s public building complex was a distinctive example of Michel Foucault’s notion of heterotopias. Through the lens of heterotopia, the story of Charleston’s public building block—Poor House, Work House, Jail, Medical College of South Caolina, and Roper Hospital—reveals the ways that the colorful social and cultural fabric was woven by both “desirable” and “undesirable” layers of threads. By embracing incompatibilities, the public building block in a designated site emulated “a realized utopia” in the context of “healthy city.”

By embracing incompatibilities, the public building block in a designated site emulated “a realized utopia” in the context of “healthy city.”
