West Columbia: Across the Congaree from the Capital
West Columbia sits on the west bank of the Congaree River, directly across from downtown Columbia. The town was known as New Brookland until 1938 and developed as an industrial counterpart to Columbia, with textile mills and rail yards occupying much of the waterfront. The Congaree Vista connection across the Gervais Street Bridge links West Columbia to downtown Columbia, and the State Street corridor has been redeveloped with restaurants and shops in former industrial buildings.
The Three Rivers Greenway runs along the west bank of the Congaree through West Columbia and into neighboring Cayce, forming a multi-use trail connected across the river to Columbia's Riverwalk. Riverbanks Zoo and Garden straddles the boundary between West Columbia and Columbia, with its main entrance on the west side accessed from Interstate 26. The Amtrak Silver Star and Silver Meteor routes both stop at the Columbia station located in West Columbia.
