More than a suburb: Goose Creek rebranding itself as a place excited about business
GOOSE CREEK — When Howard Boyd purchased a one-story, three bedroom home to start his 24-hour day care and barbering business on Red Bank Road, the land along the former two-lane road was mostly undeveloped.
But Boyd never had issues attracting customers. Today, his shop sits on a busy six-lane road that also contains a Walmart Neighborhood Market, Food Lion, several apartment complexes and Goose Creek High School all within a mile of each other.
He and his daughter Elana Pea, who currently manages the barbershop, believe economic development is a good thing.
