BullStreet History Tours

Join us as we explore the past, present and future of the former Department of Mental Health campus for an exclusive tour of the BullStreet District.

Once a city within a city, Columbia's BullStreet District offers an exciting blend of historic landmark buildings and modern amenities.

Historic buildings discussed on the tour include the Babcock Building, the former Laundry, the Williams building, the former Bakery, the former power plant and the Ensor Building—today home to Bone-In BBQ. This tour includes visits to some of the recently restored buildings on the campus, as well as an open house inside the TownPark at BullStreet.

Tours will take place on Saturday, March 9 and will be offered at the top of the hour starting at 9 a.m. and ending with the last tour at 3 p.m. Each tour lasts two hours. Tickets are $35 for Historic Columbia members and $50 for non-members. These tours are expected to sell out quickly, so hurry and reserve your spot today!

Please note: Due to safety concerns, some of the stops on this tour will only be accessible on the exterior.
