Bygone Landmarks – South Carolina

SC Picture Project  |  Bygone Landmarks
Many of our beloved landmarks disappear due to time, vandalism, or development. The mission of the South Carolina Picture Project is to digitally preserve all of our treasured Palmetto State places so that we and future generations can appreciate the complete story of South Carolina. Below are some places that feature landmarks that are now in ruins or no longer standing. Please let us know if something within the Picture Project needs to be added to this list!
