The Greyhound Bus Depot is a former Greyhound Lines intercity bus station in Columbia, South Carolina.[3] It is at 1220 Blanding Street in downtown Columbia. The depot was named to the National Register of Historic Places on December 28, 1989.[2][4] After the bus terminal was closed, the building became a bank. Currently, it is a physician's office.[5]
The building was constructed in 1938 and 1939 for Atlantic Greyhound Lines.[3][5] The bus station was closed in 1987. In 1990, it was acquired by Lexington National Bank. They used the ticket windows as teller windows. After the bank left in 2000, the building was vacant. In 2005, the building was adapted for a plastic surgeon.[5][6][7] Since 2014, the building has been a contributing property in the Columbia Commercial Historic District,[1] which was listed on the NRHP on October 20, 2014.[8]
