    Scenic Adair Co, KY: Columbia, City of Churches



    2008-08-10 - Burkesville ST, Columbia, KY - Photo By Ed Waggener.
    Columbia is a City of Beautiful Churches. In the foreground can be seen the pristine campus of Columbia United Methodist Church. The second steeple, center, peeking through in the center, is Columbia-Union Presbyterian Church. Burkesville Street is the focus of attention as the Columbia Western Bypass nears completion, offering the opportunity to make the street more people friendly, with the restoration of a shade, on street parking, slower car traffic, park benches, and more inviting place for walker, bikers, scooter riders and NEVs, and those seeking a quieter and more even more inviting worship opportunity.
