Alan Wilson led SC Republicans through a brutal primary stretch. Building his government is next.

COLUMBIA — Heading into election night, attorney general and now governor-elect Alan Wilson struck a wager with another statewide official. The still-unidentified gambler said the governor’s race would be called for Wilson by 8 p.m. If it wasn’t, Wilson would win a free lunch. Wilson wasn’t so sure. Despite having the better-funded campaign and a larger operation than Democratic rival Jermaine Johnson, the Democrats had the wind in their sails with the war in Iran, a creeping affordability crisis and an unpopular Republican president dragging his party’s prospects down. Wilson entered the even...

What will Columbia's new Congaree riverfront park look like? Here's a peek

After months of public feedback, the city of Columbia this week unveiled sweeping plans for remaking a broad swath of downtown riverfront into the city’s newest park. Plans for gardens, walkways, bike paths, community spaces and a boat launch are all slated for a future park along the banks of the Congaree River between the Gervais Street bridge and the University of South Carolina’s baseball park. The city and park designers showcased the plans for the first time at a public forum Monday at the Senate’s End event venue close to the site of the long-planned public development. They also frankly addressed the challenges to getting the project off the ground in such a challenging location. “It’s a tricky situation,” because much of the 100-acre site, long undeveloped at the edge of Columbia’s Vista district, sits in an area that is frequently flooded when storms swell the size of the Congaree, said Sarah Astheimer with the New York-based landscape architecture firm Field Operations, which designed plans for the future park. “It will be a green sponge,” Astheimer said. “Previous plans called for more development and buildings, and that would not be a smart thing to do.” Instead, the designers plan
