    Mike revamping the town has also brought new business outside of his ventures, as restaurant and butcher shop Prime & Pint – Butchery and Public House opened on March 30.

    On June 15, Build A Donut Bakery, shortened to BAD Bakery, opened up.

    A source told The U.S. Sun of further construction, “They are building a six-story condo with a restaurant. Next to that is going to be a car place.

    “The town is changing rapidly. It’s a change that is welcomed by some citizens but shunned by others in the community.”

    “It’s kind of interesting because a lot of people don’t want change and some people do, so we’re in that flux,” a town source said of Mike bringing business to Columbia.
