Garage, 821 Leesburg Road: 1980s(?)   5 comments

Posted at 11:36 pm in business

I figured I could at least get a street address by tracking down the Colliers Keenan listing for this Leesburg Road property just east of I-77, across from Greenlawn Cemetary and alongside Pringle Road, but for some reason, I can't find it on the Colliers site.

That being the case, I know essentially nothing about this building other than it is in poor shape and looks to have been a car repair garage. The trussed arched wood roof is very nice although open to the sky in most places now, and there are a couple of mysteries posed by the coat hangers and the jaunty mascot.

UPDATE 1 November 2011: Added the full street address to post title.

  1. This address *might* be 835 Leesburg. And if that's the case, I found a reference to a Williams Auto Sales at 835 Leesburg, although I don't recall it, when it was open, or when it might have closed.

  2. According to my research, this garage is between where Leesburg Road borders I-77 and Greenlawn Funeral home (845 Leesburg Road)...

    GPS coordinates are 33.975816,-80.952153 on Google Maps and bing! maps yields this address: near 771 Leesburg Rd, Columbia, SC 29209.

  3. A few months back (late 2011) a lady opened a antique/junk store and lived in her travel trailer there. She was given 821 Leesburg Road as her address. William's is at 821 Pepper St. in the old Jeffery Archery location. I do not recall if this building was used by Creed but I believe their address was 819 Leesburg Road.

  4. Columbia Auto and Paint (not Williams) is at 821 Pepper St.

  5. Ah, that helps!

    Looks like it *is* 821 Leesburg Road. I'll update the post title.

    Interesting how they show a map but not the building...

    This one shows the building but the text appears to refer to a house. Maybe it's behind the garage.
