COLUMBIA, S.C. The Columbia Housing Authority will move residents out the Marion Street High Rise apartments beginning in May due to safety concerns and obsolescence of the building.
Columbia Housing says it has taken a long, hard look at its real estate over the last year to determine what is necessary to provide the best quality, safe, affordable housing to its residents. The agency says it expects to build new units and reposition and upgrade some of its current housing stock to meet that goal.
