The Columbus Historic District is approximately 166 acres of historic structures dating from to the late This part of the city retains its original grid , wide tree lined streets, and some of the original brick streets. Not only is the area important as an example of early city planning, but it contains a large number of intact structures featuring many architectural styles and types as well as a type indigenous to Columbus. HIGH UPTOWN NEIGHBORHOOD (Columbus Historic District} HABS No. GA-2313 Page 2 The Columbus Historic District consists of approximately twenty blocks of predominantly historic residential development in the southwest portion of the city of Columbus.
It covers 166 acres and includes 390 buildings, 95% of which are residential, and 88% of which contribute to the historic character and appearance of the district. Also included in the district are several churches, a school, neighborhood stores, and an industrial complex, along with a riverfront park and other landscaping and urban planning features. Taken together, these historic resources constitute the single largest grouping of historic properties in Columbus. The historic area is bounded generally by the Chattahoochee River on the west, Ninth Street and the central business district on the north, modern "strip type" commercial development along Fourth Avenue on the east and the historic limits of city development at Fourth Street on the south.
Most of the buildings in the Columbus Historic District are historic houses. Virtually all of them are free-standing single-family structures. They date from the late to the mid-1930s. Most are built of wood; a few are constructed of brick. The houses are one or two stories high and range in size from numerous modest cottages and shotguns to large mansions. They are generally situated near the front center of their lots, with relatively uniform setbacks, small front and side yards, with larger rear yards. Architectural styles represented by these houses include nearly the full range of and early century domestic American architectural styles: Federal, Greek Revival, Gothic Revival, Italianate, Second Empire, Eastlake, Queen Anne, Neoclassical, Colonial Revival, and Craftsman.
Three types of historic landscaping treatments are found in the Columbus Historic District. Paramount among them is the historic streetscaping found throughout the district. This streetscaping consists of granite-curbed street (some with historic brick pavement); street trees, grassy borders along the HIGH UPTOWN NEIGHBORHOOD (Columbus Historic District) HABS No. GA-2313 Page 3 streets, and sidewalks paralleling the streets. Because of the unusually wide right-of-way of the avenues in the district, these north-south thoroughfares feature expansive streetscape treatments characterized by a broad, grassy, tree-shaded border between the sidewalks and the streets which gives the district a distinct character and appearance.
Complementing the historic streetscaping is the informal landscaping of front yards along 1 the avenues and streets in the district.

Hunt House, the Abbot House, the McGehee-Woodall House, the Swift House, the Pou House, and the Columbus Street Car Barn.

The Swift House, c. was a contributing building within the Historic Columbus, Multiple Resource, National Register District. It was a rare surviving example of the Greek Revival style represented in brick where the use of brick was infrequent in Columbus during this period. It has been demolished, though not by the Georgia Department of Transportation.
Historically, the house was particularly significant as the home of Edward W. Swift who was the president of Muscogee Manufacturing Co. and family-owned Swift Spinning Mill. Although this house probably dated back to the ante-bellum period, its later inhabitants were most likely representative of individuals who lived there just after the dwelling's construction. The Swift House was an example of the Greek Revival style. It was a one story raised brick cottage. The roof was hipped with a ridge and had tin shingles. The in wall chimney featured a barrel vault brick cap. The porch had a flat roof which was supported by four square Tuscan style columns and a simple entablature.

Pou, Jr. House was a contributing building within the Historic Columbus, Multiple Resource National Register District. It was significant not only as an example of middle class housing in Columbus, Georgia, but as one of the finest examples of a Victorian Gothic cottage in the Columbus Multiple Resource area. Much of the original exterior architectural ornamentation survived and this, plus the asymmetrical outline of the house were good documents of the late Victorian "Picturesque Aesthetic" as seen in a small house in Southwest Georgia's largest town. The Joseph F. Pou, Jr. House, c. was a one story Victorian Gothic with an irregular floor plan.
The house 7 Historic Resources of Columbus, Muscogee County, Georgia, Georgia Architectural and Historic Properties Survey-Inventory Form June, HIGH UPTOWN NEIGHBORHOOD (Columbus Historic District) HABS No. GA-2313 Page 12 featured a pyramidal hipped roof with gables.

" The building was constructed in by the Columbus Power Company to serve as the repair shop and office of the city's trolley car system. The company was the successor to the Brush Electric Company founded in to provide electric lights and power to operate street cars owned by the Columbus Railroad Company.
The source of this power was a steam plant at the site on Second Avenue selected for the proposed car barn and a water-powered generator at the Paragon Mills (later City Mills) at the end of Eighteenth Street on First Avenue. This early introduction of hydroelectric power to the area led to its use to drive local manufacturing plants as well. In this innovation, Columbus was in the forefront of a national trend. The Columbus Power Company resulted from the efforts of business and industrial leaders and the local press to promote Columbus nationally as "The Electric City" in order to attract out-of-state capital to finance hydroelectric development of the river. Under the leadership of industrialist-financier G.
Gunby Jordan, the group incorporated as The Columbus Power Company in and merged with the existing Brush Company. In the company was sold to the Stone and Webster Corporation of Boston. This corporation also obtained control of the Gas Light Company of Columbus and the Columbus Railroad Company. In the three companies were merged into The Columbus Electric and Power Company which the Georgia Power Company purchased in 10 Muscogee County Tax Records, Deed Book HH, p. HIGH UPTOWN NEIGHBORHOOD (Columbus Historic District) HABS No. GA-2313 Page 14 In The Columbus Power Company, under the oversight of Stone and Webster, built "Great Rock," their second dam on the Chattahoochee River. It was feet long and generated horsepower of current.
This was indicative of the increased demand for electricity in the Columbus area and the increased use of street cars which led to the construction of the building at Second Avenue. The building continued to be used for its original purpose until when the trolley system was discontinued. Use of this system had been in decline for the previous decade. When it was discontinued its maintenance building was leased to the Columbus Transportation Company and became the repair shop for their new fleet of busses. By only two electric car lines remained in operation because busses had proved to be more versatile and less expensive. The building was purchased by the Columbus Transportation Company in from the Georgia Power Company.
It was leased to the Columbus Transportation Company until the city purchased the company, renaming it the Columbus Transportation System. The building was vacated the first week of September when the headquarters of the transit system was moved to new facilities. In the City of Columbus sold the building to Williams Tractor Company to become their retail tractor sales location. In the Williams Company sold the Ford tractor dealership, and the building, to Bill Russell Ford Company. In August Bill Russell sold the property to John Dawson Meiremore, the present owner. Until the fire on October 30, the building housed Masterbuilt Co. Presently it is being used to manufacture utility trailers. 11 11 John S. Lupold, Coluffibus.
