Finlay Park

The beautiful Finlay Park is one of the City of Columbia's oldest public spaces having been first established in 1859 as Sidney Park in honor of a localy city councilman at the time Algernon Sidney Johnson. The park was renamed in 1992 after mayor Kirkman Finlay. It is located right across the street from the Governor's Mansion.
