1972 Map of Southwest Columbia

About this map

The Congaree River serves as the dividing line between the growing urban center of Columbia and the industrial and residential developments of Lexington and Richland counties. This early 1970s landscape is defined by its transit hubs and educational institutions, featuring the University of South Carolina campus and the sprawling Columbia Metropolitan Airport. To the south and west, the terrain transitions into a patchwork of smaller communities like Springdale, Pineridge, and Dixiana, where the Seaboard Coast Line and Southern railroads cut through the timbered lowlands.
