Super easy to get into. I was there for a meeting at the Hilton, which is attached. I was able to…read morefind a parking spot quickly, and for a downtown parking garage, the rates were reasonable. The spaces are big enough that you don't feel like you're going to nail the side of someone's card whilst exiting your own ride. The garage could stand a bit more lighting (what is it about garages that this seems to always be the case?). All-in-all the garage was exactly what I needed exactly when I needed it.

Hands down, this library has to be my favorite of all the libraries I've been to!!! The selection…read moreand options are endless! There's 3 floors including an underground level for children. The underground level has trees planted and it gives the area such a refreshing look and smell. I admire that there is a help section for jobseekers. There's rooms for meetings, there studios for people to work and there's a theater room?! The opportunity this library provides for people to advance in your careers and or businesses is amazing! This library is so cool and I'm in shock of how great it looks as well as what it offers!

While this is a covered garage, like most urban college campuses, there just aren't enough spaces…read more I came here for work on a college tour and was almost late because I could not find a place to park. This garage has several levels with reserved parking and most of those spots were not used. USC should consider turning this garage into visitor only and moving reserved spots to another location. Touring the campus is pretty tough if one can't find a place to park.

A historic mall located in the heart of downtown Columbia, South Carolina, featuring an array of…read morelocal art studios, shops, hair salons, and offices. Im a member and volunteer of Historic Columbia, go to their website for all the deets. Ive done a good review of Historic Columbia. They perserve the history of Columbia SC amongst other things in the city. Being a member has allowed me to attend behind the scenes of new projects and keep up with the new preservations of the city. The event " Columbia Down Under" was well planned and open only to members. We met up at the restored Arcade Mall in the DT area in the city. Parking can be a task since DT has become more popular with all the happenings in town. Once we met up inside the Arcade Mall we were gven tickets for light snack food and two beverage ticket. There history slides on a projector explaining the past life under ground. We were given the low down of the evening from the guide, then we went downstairs for the beginning of the tour. They had 3 groups, thankfully I was in the first to go under ground. The steps were a little steep, not to bad though. If you have any respiratory issues I would advice taking a mask with you. Its unfinished in its original state, untouched. For now they have no plans on restoring the "Under Ground". I actually learned quite a bit during this tour. The guide works for Historic Columbia and was very knowledgeable, he welcomed any questions for all us history buffs. This was my first visit to The Arcade but not my last, the buildings architecture is absolutely gorgeous. Plenty of shops and spaces to add a business. Its worth a visit if your DT Columbia!
