Go behind the scenes with Historic Columbia and explore this iconic landmark!

The Keenan building was built as a six-story structure in 1921 and became a complex in 1951, when a ten-story portion was added on. It was further expanded in the 1980s with a three-story addition. This complex has been home to many organizations and business, from the Masons to Merrill Lynch. It will soon be transformed into 109 apartments will a spectacular view of Main Street. See for yourself by registering for our next behind-the-scenes tour!
