The Tides at Charleston, an adult community development of approximately 120 units broke ground in Summer 2007, with units available for occupancy as of early 2008. A Kresicherville Active Adult community is slated to cost $25 million and will preserve the Kreischer mansion as a central landmark for the development. Charleston is one of the most remote and sparsely populated areas within all of New York City. In addition to the Kreischer mansion and Sandy Ground, the neighborhood is also home to the Clay Pit Ponds State Park Preserve, and the Arthur Kill Correctional Facility, a closed state prison property. Even today many Charleston residents still keep horses on their property. In June 2016, a Shoprite opened on Veterans Road. It is the only supermarket located in Charleston as of 2020. In September 2017, developers announced the construction of Riverside Galleria, a shopping mall in the southern part of Charleston being designed by Studio V Architecture. The mall would include amenities such as a waterfront park, elevated walkways, and green roofs, as well as a variety of shops that included restaurants, a "dine-in cinema", and a supermarket. However, plans for the mall were canceled in January 2019 due to community opposition.

The Charleston Library features "dedicated spaces for adults, teens, and children and flexible multi-purpose rooms for programs and classes."
