2017 Map of Columbia North

About this map

The Broad River and Saluda River converge in this 2017 study of the South Carolina capital, a landscape defined by its historic educational institutions and an extensive network of cemeteries. The presence of Columbia International Univ, Benedict Coll, and Allen Univ underscores the city's long-standing role as a center for higher learning. Along the banks of the Columbia Canal, industrial and urban history is visible through features like the Factory Cem and the Timmerman Bridge. Residential expansion is evident in established neighborhoods such as Haskell Heights, Denny Terrace, and Dentsville, while the Norfolk Southern Railway continues to mark the transportation corridor through the city's core. Numerous burial grounds, including the Taylor Burying Ground and Elmwood Cem, offer significant reference points for local genealogists researching the families of Columbia and West Columbia.
