Dutch Square - Columbia, SC - 62+ Stores and an AMC Theater


Located at 421 Bush River Road in Columbia, South Carolina, Dutch Square originally opened in 1970. When the mall first opened, it was advertised as the "largest mall in the Carolinas.'' After the loss of several anchors, the mall's management company filed for bankruptcy in 1993. In 1995, the mall was purchased by Phillips Edison & Co. In order to bring tax revenues to the city, the city of Columbia annexed the mall property in 1997. Phillips Edison & Co. then redeveloped the mall and added an additional 18,000 square feet to the facility, which brought total retail space to approximately 600,000 square feet.

The mall features stores in all of the following categories: accessories, children's apparel, gifts and books, hobbies and amusement, jewelry, major stores, men's apparel, music and electronics, personal services, restaurants, shoes, specialty foods, specialty stores, and women's apparel.
