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!

They let me shop without a mask because of my medical exemption but after about 3 weeks of shopping…read moreseveral times a week with no problems and spending about $1,000, a manager decided I couldn't shop there any longer without a mask even though I told him about my medical exemption. He's an older black man and he hated my guts from the first time I shopped there without a mask. He never said a word until weeks later. He seems to do nothing but stare creepily at customers as they shop. The employees there, who are amazing, friendly people, don't wear a mask all the way half the time. I exchanged words with the manager and his senior manager, an older woman, and they both decided to discriminate against me for having a medical condition which prevents me from wearing a mask even though the mask ordinance is very clear that we are not to be discriminated against for this reason. Nobody at Crazy Cazboys is a medical doctor and they have no business asking anyone to wear a mask. That's a serious medical intervention. You can't ask customers to take a prescription pill to enter a store nor can you lawfully ask customers to cut off their oxygen and increase their carbon dioxide. I'm speaking from 15 years of working in a full body hazmat suit and mask and a BS in Nutrition. I know more about the human body than these people. If you're cool with mask tyranny then they have some nice things to buy. I'll never support a business that treats good, paying customers like they treated me.
