he Historic Columbus Foundation (HCF) held their River Raffle on September 25, 2008 to celebrate “What Progress Has Preserved� at the Eagle and Phenix Mill Complex. The Eagle and Phenix has been a vibrant part of the history of Columbus. With the end of the textile industry in the southern United States, plans are to revive this beautiful property as a mixed-use residential and commercial community that will once again be the pride of Columbus.
