Improvement, Inc.
Columbia re-vitalization
Last Wednesday night
citizens of Columbia heard
about plans to re-vitalize
their town by restoring their
historic architecture and
attracting tourists to the
downtown business dsitrict.
Columbia Area Improve-
ment, Inc., headed by John
Hinkle, and their consult-
ants, American Cities Corp.
of Columbia, Maryland,
presented the plans to
revivify downtown Columb-
ia.
Earlier in the evening the
Columbia Borough Council,
by a vote of 4 to 2, had
endorsed an application tor
$210,000 from the Federal
Department of Housing and
Urban Development, to
renovate the Market House
on Third Street, a first step
in the re-furbishing of the
downtown.
The layout, lighting, and
merchandising equipment
in Market House will be
improved.
Other projects planned for
downtown improvement
are:
Renovation of the aband-
oned Becker Pretzel Factory
at Locust and Second Streets
into four factory outlet
stores, with ‘‘a white
restaurant on
tablecloth”
the top floor;
scribes role of Columbia
Little Theater in rejuvena-
tion of the cultural life of
Columbia.
John Hinkle and Rollin Morse of Columbia Area
June 11, 1980
Creating a ‘Town Green’
behind the Market House
and Borough Hall;
Converting the Columbia
and Locust Hotels into
permanent residential rental
units;
Restoring facades along
Locust Street;
arry Brunett, vice-pres-
ident of American Cities,
Corporation,
study of Columbia’s poten-
tiality.
Increasing parking space
off the streets to accommo-
date S20 cars;
Forming a specialty retail
district on Locust Street
between Second and Third
Streets.
Plans for the more distant
future include a railroad
museum, to commemorate
Columbia’s previously pre-
eminent role as a national
railroad center. It is possible
that a track connection with
the Strasburg Railroad could
be made, making possible
rides in old trains from
Columbia to Strasburg and
back.
Part of the old canal could
be restored, permitting
tourists to take a short
excursion on an old canal
¢ boat.
The old ferry to Wrights-
ville could be re-activated.
