This week's photos from around town...
All you need is love (as well as food, water, shelter, and clothing, not necessarily in that order).
Read all about it.

Columbia Water Company datestone - 1849
Down at Locust and Bank Avenue, what was to be apartments...
...is now weeds and a big hole in the ground, which could still be a tourist attraction. It all depends on the marketing, or as we say in Columbia, the "visioning."
Shovel at rest on the 500 block of Walnut
Don't hang with the little people.
Mural lights, real and depicted
Illuminated mural
Here, too, although the lights were on the building first.
Add this to the growing list of Columbia's murals, this one seen recently on Lawrence Street.

Nice pics thanks cole
ReplyDeleteThe view coming into town on route 441, as shown, is a most spectacular view. I have friends who are not from the area point that out. We just take it for granted. Nice pics!
ReplyDeleteThere are a lot of positives going on in Columbia! Visitors to this site or the town, please ignore all the negative people. Well, except for taxes and under performing schools.
ReplyDeleteWhat are "negative people" Mr. Or Mrs. Anonymous?
DeletePeople are tired of all the money going to the money pit, I don't see all the positive things that this person sees but with the money pit money being used in the (hole) town it might, but if the powers that be keep it at the river maybe they should block it off from the real town, Columbia is NOT Lititz and will never be , but you can't put all the eggs in the river park.
DeleteFailing schools, out of control council
ReplyDeleteMake the school system on line , no building , no big pay roll , it was good for the adminastrators .
DeleteNice pictures. Thanks for all the postings.
ReplyDeleteI see Marietta is doing the piano thing like they do in Lancaster city and park city!
ReplyDeleteSo no apartment building at Bank Avenue and Locust St.?
