Convenience Store Building, 3202 Fernandina Road: Early 2023 (Being Demolished) 7 comments
This building, a former Lawyer Lisa office (she moved in 2022), and several other things (click the address tag below) is not long for the world now. I presume it will go as part of the I-26 construction project, but for whatever reason, it is already half torn down internally. What I can't speculate about is why anyone would would have tacked up U-Haul Storage sliding doors on the left side, or what the white board notations on the front mean.
Lawyer Lisa continues in business at several other locations, most notably 5175 Sunset Boulevard.
Personally I will always remember this building from its Mosaic phase:
UPDATE 9 October 2023 -- This building has now been razed:

I believe it was either a Minute Saver or a Zippy Mart when the building was built.

The Irmo Fire Department posted that they were using this building for training exercises a few weeks ago. That probably explains some of the weirdness.

I remember this used to be N-Graphics or something like that. There were mosaic butterflies on the walls out front. But the mosaics were from the previous company. I used to live in an apartment complex right behind that building somewhere, back in the late 90's. But it was a business called "Pretty Things".
I always got the impression it was some kind of arts supply or artists shop.Brian

I remember this as a Zippy Mart, but we never went as there were two closer stores to us. I saw some firemen on the roof a couple of weeks ago, so glad to know they were training. Fernandina Road from Piney Grove to St. Andrews is in horrible condition. I hope it’s repaved soon.

" What I can't speculate about is why anyone would would have tacked up U-Haul Storage sliding doors on the left side."
Legend has it that if you leave a vacant building alone long enough, it evolves into a self-storage business or a Dollar General. Looks like this one was slowly turning into a U-Haul self storage locations.
