Pacific Community Association Building, also known as Pacific Community YMCA and The 'Y', is a historic community center located at Columbia, South Carolina. The original section was built in 1903, and is a large two-story, irregularly-shaped brick building. It was enlarged around 1918 with the addition of the pool building, and a large gymnasium in 1923. It provided recreational opportunities for residents of mill villages associated with the Olympia and Granby Mill complex.[2][3]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.[1]
