National Pride Car Wash, 2416 Broad River Road: 2014 14 comments
I noticed this summer that the self-service car wash more or less across from the old Blockbuster is up for sale. I have not been by for a month or so, but at the time it appeared the place would stay in operation until sold.
I don't find much information about the place online, but back in 2003, the USC football team did a charity event there.
UPDATE 23 April 2019 -- Well, this place apparently did not sell for a long time, and stayed open for years after this post. Commenter Andrew reports it has now been torn down, which does not surprise me, as the last time I drove by it was cordoned off with tape barricades and something was apparently about to happen. I took some drive-by shots, which aren't great, but so it goes:
UPDATE 15 March 2022 -- The place has now been razed:
UPDATE 23 March 2023 -- Something is being built on the lot:
UPDATE 29 January 2024 -- Now Cars & Beyond:
(Also took the "for sale" note out of post title).
