  1. I hope to go back in a couple of weeks when there will be more color on the larger trees. You can't see all of the color in the smaller trees from up there.
  2. I made it to the Top of Carolina for lunch today and took some pics. I'll go back on a sunny day and hopefully get better pics. The first is a 360 degree pano, which didn't turn out too well and the other is Five Points from the TOC.
  3. Well that thing has never been supported by Columbians - remember when the city tried to sue the state to get rid of it?
  4. Don't forget that the Columbia Italian Festival and Bocce Tournament is this Saturday at Finlay Park.
  5. The State has announced that Mast will, in fact, open a store in Columbia. Mast
  6. The Mast in Knoxville has residential space above the store - one of my co-workers has friends that live in the building.
  7. That's old news. I went into the Mast in Knoxville today. It was ok, but nothing spectacular.
  8. Actually I think it exemplifies the point that if you live and work downtown you don't have to deal with that traffic.
  9. The lack of available credit for small businesses is driving a lot of the business closures right now. It's a shame that a measly $4000 stove will force that business to close. They must have been teetering to begin with, though, for such a small item to be a back breaker.
  10. I might have to check out the show to see the sites of Columbia though I have no interest in the subject matter otherwise.
  11. Of course it does...Columbia IS a cool city.
  12. Being straight is ok if that's who you are, but it's so much more fun to be gay!
  13. I generally consider "downtown" to be the original 4 square miles of the City of Columbia, which includes Elmwood to Whaley and Harden to the river. This includes the Vista, the Main Street District, USC and Five Points.
  14. I wish they'd add a cruise to Bermuda from Charleston - the Bahamas and Key West are too common in terms of destinations.
  15. Here are a couple from SC Gay Pride in Columbia on Saturday:
  16. Gay Pride is this weekend, as well. The first event of Friday night, at the White Mule, was packed.

    Parks needs to go. NOW.
  18. I concur. I am especially concerned about the fact that this developer was involved with Green Diamond. I personally hope this deal falls through.
  19. Something like that will be awesome. I'll have to check that out when I'm in NYC next week. I am CONTEMPLATING taking a 360 degree pano of Manhattan from a circle line cruise, but don't know that I want to spend 3 straight hours taking pictures on a boat.
  20. There are plenty of mid to upper class neighborhoods surrounding Five Points, not to mention there is already a significant amount of retail in Five Points.
  21. Apple would be a nice addition to Five Points even though it is a chain. With USC and the Apple-type neighborhoods surrounding Five Points, I think it's a great location, though I wouldn't have put it in that new building.

    I think either one could definitely get it done. It would be nice to see that money stay in Columbia.

    I get the impression that Parks needs to go, also.
