Additional Description: For almost 25 years the United Services Organization (USO) [Picture included] ran a club overlooking what is today Finlay Park. Established in 1942 at the intersection of Laurel and Assembly streets, the modern facility offered impressive views of the city for thousands of guests who visited it during World War II and thereafter. Construction of the city's main U.S. Post Office in 1966 resulted in the demolition of this popular attraction. John Heusel Photograph Collection Historic Columbia Foundation.
