Welcome to Cottontown
Established in the late 1890s, Cottontown is listed as the “Bellevue Historic District” in the National Register of Historic Places and is protected as an architectural conservation district by the City of Columbia. Bounded by Grace Avenue, Bull Street, Elmwood Avenue and Main Street, the neighborhood is remarkable as an intact example of one of Columbia’s earliest planned suburbs.

Want to join the neighborhood Facebook group? Ask a neighbor to send you an invite! In an effort to eliminate people from outside of the neighborhood from gaining access to our group, especially to market their businesses, the Cottontown Board has decided to hide the group from non-members. Only about 2% of our new member requests are from people who actually live in the neighborhood. Unfortunately, this makes it harder for our new neighbors to find us, but was a necessary action.
