Granby Mill Village

Welcome to Granby Mill Village

"A pedestrian-friendly historic cotton mill village located near both the beautiful Congaree riverfront and the University of South Carolina campus, Granby offers the very best of downtown living in a unique and diverse neighborhood.  We are a National Register Historic District of restored 1890s salt box style mill houses on the Three Rivers Greenway linking nearby Granby Park on the river to USC.  With the restoration of the nearby Granby and Olympia mills for loft apartments, the Granby Mill Village is enjoying the benefits of an urban renaissance."
