Columbia Street Landing was an active harbor where schooners and steamers once docked. Established in the early 1800's, it provided a vital link to other river cities by transporting cotton, lumber, bricks, whiskey, and mail. Oyster luggers brought fresh oysters regularly through the late 1930's. Many early settlers of the community arrived there.
