Up just a couple of blocks front the Vista is the beautiful Richland County Library. A newer alter native to USC’s Thomas Cooper Library, Richland County Library is a good place to go to browse through an overwhelming collection of books or music, or to do some research while looking out the window at the Columbia skyline. In the next couple of years, USC’s cam pus will be growing into the Vista area. A 19.000 seat arena is scheduled to be completed by Fall 2002 at College mid Lincoln streets. The arena, to be South Carolina's largest, will be the new home to USC Biisketball and Columbia’s own professional hockey team. USC’s Facilities Master Plan for campus de velopment calls for the campus to grow westward to the Congaree River in the coming years. The Congaree Vista has been Columbia’s growth hot spot in the past few years, and USC students can look forward to a bright future for this area of town.
