PHOTOS: Temporary Walls Erected Around Columbia Harbour House During Refurbishment

We’ve been checking in on the refurbishment of Liberty Square dining staple, Columbia Harbour House, and have seen scrims from a few weeks ago come down as temporary walls go up. The restaurant remains open to guests despite the exterior refurbishment.

The signs on the temporary walls indicate that there is wet paint behind them.

The restaurant remains open through this minor refurbishment.

Scrim Still Up, Menu Board Removed

We first noticed these scrims go up in mid-September, as well as some additional scrims above the area, obscuring the windows at the top of this image.

The windows at the top of the restaurant were uncovered about a week later, but this area remains covered with scrim, suggesting the façade is being refurbished.

Next to the restaurant’s door, we noticed that the menu board had been removed.

The menu is still available inside the restaurant. This board may have been removed for painting, as signage indicates the rest of the building is receiving a fresh coat.
