The collective impact is found in four main areas: jobs, investment, tourism venues, and property value growth. Findings from the study reinforce the importance of historic preservation for the City’s economy and confirms that preserving Columbia’s architectural heritage is an informed, strategic investment in the future. Impacts from Bailey Bill projects include $217 million in investments; 102 local jobs annually; $5.2 million in annual labor income; and an additional $15 spent in qualifying rehabilitation for every $1 of required investment. In 2022, heritage tourism resulted in over two million overnight visitors. May is Preservation Month and the Historic Columbia Foundation will lead an awareness campaign about the study.
