Surely you don't literally mean "underground", right?
Not sure whether "underground parking" is the correct translation for the German word "Tiefgarage". I mean a multistory parking garage, that is below ground. First you start digging a deep hole into the ground and build a parking garage in this hole.
Or do you mean that it's not possible to build such an underground parking garage in Charleston because of the proximity to the ocean or the texture of the ground? Amsterdam is also exposed to all kinds of water and they have managed to built underground parking structures. Of course such underground parking structures have to be sealed.

Oh it'll work, if you want to park under water.
Maybe it can double as a car wash.

Not sure if the conditions are the same here as in Amsterdam but this is a city that hasn't been able to control street flooding for as long as I can remember. It would take some real convincing to get me to think they could manage underground parking.
Ahold Delhaize could close the upper King St. Food Lion, but not because it doesn't have enough business or isn't in a good location.
This is politically incorrect to say, but sometimes stores close because of shrink. Here's a story from 2007 that talks about how that store is the worst in the area for stolen grocery carts, which cost $250 each to replace.
Walmart closed a number of Supercenters and Sam's Clubs in January that were very busy stores, but were unfortunately stolen out of existence.
This is a tangent, but I find it interesting that Ms. Raskin, the journalist who wrote the attached article about BI-LO's closing, has no car, since living in Charleston with no car and proximity to amenities like grocery stores, etc., has been discussed in these threads.
I don't get how she acts like Charleston's food scene has anything to do with proximity to a grocery store.
