Main Street

Main Street has served as Columbia’s primary business district since the capital city’s founding in 1786. Originally named in honor of Revolutionary War Brigadier General Richard Richardson, this chief thoroughfare came to be known as Main Street after 1892. Between the South Carolina State House and Elmwood Avenue, Main Street contains several blocks of architecturally significant buildings listed in the National Register of Historic Places as the “Columbia Commercial Historic District.”
