Trident Technical College — Palmer Campus

At 66 Columbus Street, Palmer sits in downtown Charleston and brings college services into an urban setting. Its programs and facilities include the Culinary Institute of Charleston, the 181 Palmer dining room, demonstration kitchens, an amphitheater, library and student support. The campus also has a history tied to C.A. Brown High School and Charleston’s Eastside community, which the college marks through public events and walking tours.

Palmer is a practical point of contact for admissions, financial aid, student success and library service; students should confirm which office is open at this address before making a special trip. The college’s conference page advertises free parking for event guests, but that does not establish general student or visitor parking for every campus visit. Check the current campus directions and parking rules.

CARTA operates the Charleston-area bus network, including downtown service. Since route patterns and stops can change, use its live map or planner with the Columbus Street address rather than relying on a route number from an old schedule.
