Waverly

Established shortly after the Civil War and incorporated into Columbia’s city limits in 1913, Waverly is listed as a Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places and is protected as an architectural conservation district by the City of Columbia. Bounded by Harden Street, Read Street, Millwood Avenue and Gervais Street, by the early twentieth century this neighborhood became known as a self-contained, self-sustaining black community featuring many middle- and upper- class African American residents, among whom were leaders within spiritual, business, academic and professional circles.
