No, and it doesn't look great. It's a bit of an embarrassment. I hope this gets sold and the new owners have the capital to finish the project.

Yikes...well I hope it gets completed soon. I didn't even know there was a historic exterior underneath.

Yeah that section of main street is super wide.. I don't know if it even sees that level of traffic.. 66' is very wide.. It should resemble the northern stretch of Main Street north of the Capital.. atleast in the blocks represented by the study area. To date its been sort of a no mans land in between USC and the State House...

I hope it gets a make over and we see some apartments down there. It's needed.

That building and 1321 Across the street. That little area needs an up and up renovation.

Columbia Rents Spike, Driven in Part by Student Housing | News | free-times.com
This is crazy. I understand there's other options outside of downtown but i kinda want to live close to everything. This is crazy still though.

Default Edventure also Getting Cool Reno/ Boeing 757 Cockpit on side of building

Utilizing a grant from NASA, Edventure is adding a flight exhibit which includes a cool addition to the building that everyone driving by on Gervais will see, a Boeing 757 cockpit jutting out from the superstructure of the building! There's a video of it on TheSTate.com

I had to look that up- totally forgot about the announcement. As a reminder, it's at 1712 Main Street. This is great, it will be the only grocery store within walking distance (Publix in the Vista is a bit far).

Ok so Cannon Garage has those open spots on the bottom for retail and stuff. I saw them fixing up the one at the direct corner of Taylor and Sumter st. There's a bunch of equipment inside they've been working on it for about a week now. Anyone knows what's going there? Would be nice for a restaurant or bar there.
