Arsenal Hill Home : 723 Laurel Street, Columbia, SC 29201

Historic Columbia’s 2018 Preservation Workshop series, presented by Lucas Properties, returns from 10 a.m. – noon on Saturday, May 19.

This workshop will explore the rehabilitation of a circa 1910 historic house located in the Arsenal Hill historic district and will showcase the project’s final results, which include restoring the original heart pine floors, interior moldings and the original windows. Guests will have a chance to hear insights and ask questions about the restoration and repair decisions and pitfalls that the property developer encountered along the way. This workshop will take place at 723 Laurel Street. Space is limited.
