The latter views especially make the city look bigger than it really is (it made a really good impression to an out-of-town family member we were hosting as we were driving back from the Botanical Gardens).

From the capitol grounds. A shot later in the day would show the capitol dome's reflection better.

Not that it matters in this day and economy.. but is there a height limit in Columbia's Downtown?? I know no one is going to build a 30 story building any time soon but I figured there was a limit at some level

There's no height limit in the CBD.

The only height limit is in the Vista - west of Assembly Street. I think the height limit there is 80 feet.

Late Sunday afternoon on Main Street.

It's a bright, clear day in the Capital City!
