Columbia Architectural Spotlight

Planned Natural Harmonies & Lakeside Serenity

Designed by James Rouse in the 1960s as a model garden city, Columbia is woven together by interconnected lakes, protected woodlands, and historic agricultural village centers. Its centerpiece, Lake Kittamaqundi, features peaceful waterfront walkways, wooden docks, and the iconic People Tree sculpture.

For rustic-chic celebrations, historic preserved properties like The Other Barn in Oakland Mills and Slayton House in Wilde Lake provide soaring vaulted wood ceilings, authentic brick courtyards, and natural woodsy privacy in the center of Howard County.
