Description
The massive Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia, South Carolina was originally constructed as the 17,600-seat Columbia Municipal Stadium in 1934. Sources claim that the federal Works Progress Administration (WPA) provided significant funds / labor for the project’s construction; however, as the WPA was not officially established until 1935 further research is needed to validate the federal program that was responsible for this project.
