Yes, but probably the most boring of all the suburbs. Think faux-Colonial stuff.

Was not aware Columbus had so much going on. Looks great! Some very cutting edge looking designs in there.

Wow, CBus is killing it! Especially love the new urban development in Dublin and other suburbs-glad to see that they're making a real effort to become destinations and commercial centers of their own right, as well as take steps towards becoming more centralized and less car-dependent.
|
Hmmm. I did not see the nine story red yuppie box planned for downtown where the lab building was...also not seeing the six or so story building downtown planned for I think Fifth and Town(just requiring some 60's lowrise junk to be demo'd).
LOL at 'yuppie boxes' We can't help it that we were 1/2 the urban area pop. as Cincy in 1950, or 1/3 that of Cleveland at the same time. We don't have many significant buildings(left) to redo. How about those buildings on Broad by the horror that is our tallest building(named appropriately after one of our nastiest ugliest governors)that are being turned into a boutique hotel? Also a new 12 story yuppie box just announced for 1st and High in the Short North-has the Short North facebook brigade all up in arms. |
^Yeah, I'm not going to post every yuppie box going up in the area as that would take months.
Meanwhile, another box is going up in the Short North: 12-Story Building Proposed to Replace Grandview Mercantile in Short North http://www.columbusunderground.com/w...90&w=650&zc=1& http://www.columbusunderground.com/w...ndering-01.jpg More below: http://www.columbusunderground.com/1...in-short-north |
Hmm....

Thanks for the great update, ColDayMan! I'm hardly surprised things are booming like this.
As a native Cuyahoga/Summit Buckeye, I've always loved Columbus. I'm also a Nationwide brat. I think it's required. ;) |
Kaufman Announces Five-Story Apartment Development in Franklinton
http://www.columbusunderground.com/w...-street-03.jpg http://www.columbusunderground.com/w...-street-02.jpg http://www.columbusunderground.com/w...-street-05.jpg http://www.columbusunderground.com/w...-street-04.jpg Franklinton has been a hotspot for development announcements over the past several years, and that trend continues today, with new plans proposing a five-story mixed-use apartment building on Broad Street in the heart of the neighborhood. The project will be the first in Franklinton from Kaufman Development, which has primarily focused their urban development efforts more centrally Downtown. “We’ve been following the neighborhood for many years now and getting involved in what’s happening there through the Franklinton Development Association, Independents’ Day and through a variety of our other friends that are active in the community,” explained Kaufman Development founder Brett Kaufman. “We really relate to the neighborhood and feel like we can do something really unique and special there — different from any other part of the city.” More below: http://www.columbusunderground.com/k...in-franklinton |
Franklinton Mixed-Use Development Proposal Receives Updates
http://www.columbusunderground.com/w...90&w=650&zc=1& Changes have been been made to the large mixed-use development planned for the former Riverside-Bradley public housing site in East Franklinton. The first phase of the project will now include 230 apartments, over 36,000 square feet of office and retail space, and a 290-space parking garage. The layout of the development has also been altered, apparently in response to concerns expressed by the East Franklinton Review Board when the project was reviewed conceptually in May of last year. Board members at that time thought more emphasis should be given to the river side of the project. Although the development still features two five-story buildings fronting Rich Street, two rows of three-story townhomes have been added that will look out onto the Scioto River.

Damn, Columbus is going crazy. I'm surprised the city doesn't get more attention.

Kaufman Development Announces 10-Story Mixed-Use Project in Short North
Earlier this year, Kaufman Development purchased the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers building located on Second Avenue, just off High Street in Victorian Village. Today, we’re getting a first look at what they plan to do with both the building and its large parking lot that faces Price Avenue. A development proposal unveiled this morning shows a plan that calls for the construction of a 10-story mixed-use property that would also preserve a portion of the existing two-story building located on the 1.5 acre site. More below: http://www.columbusunderground.com/k...in-short-north http://www.columbusunderground.com/w...90&w=650&zc=1& http://www.columbusunderground.com/w...n-shono-02.jpg http://www.columbusunderground.com/w...n-shono-03.jpg |

http://www.columbusunderground.com/w...90&w=650&zc=1& The Pizzuti Companies will present their latest proposal for the Grandview Mercantile site to the Victorian Village Commission tonight. The programming and height of the building remain the same as the second iteration of the project, which was presented to the commission last month – a 10-story building featuring 12,600 square feet of ground-floor retail space, five floors of office space and a 164-space parking garage.

New Visuals Unveiled for 11-Story Downtown Development Proposal
http://www.columbusunderground.com/w...90&w=650&zc=1& Last week, we got our first look at a new 11-story apartment building proposal from local developers Crawford Hoying that would replace the three-story Swan Cleaners building at the Downtown intersection of Cherry Street and High Street if built as planned. While the original article only featured basic building schematics as visuals, we’ve been given an exclusive first look at the building’s initial design, created by local architectural firm DesignGroup.

There's a billion new projects I'm not posting but I thought I'd at least drop this one off.
Final design has been approved for the Millennial Tower. Columbus will be adding two new 400+ footers to the skyline within the next several years (The first being this). The tower will add 720,000 square feet of office, retail, hotel, residential restaurant and parking garage space to the RiverSouth neighborhood. At 412 feet tall, the building will become the 10th largest in the city, and second tallest residential building. http://www.columbusunderground.com/2...commission-bw1 https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DUPSmpYU0AA1E9L.jpg |

Exciting to see so much happening now & also excited the building boom is anticipated to continue into the future for Columbus!
|
Awesome developments! I need to read up more on the Urban Ohio forums about Columbus I guess. But, it would be cool to see you (or someone else) post some news here more often - especially for big projects. I especially like the project that replaces a parking lot with townhouses along the park. There's no reason a surface lot should border a park in Downtown.
|
Agreed! I'm living in Chicago and from Columbus and it has been awesome to watch everything developing in Columbus on here.
Quick question - in the diagrams of Columbus skyscrapers/buildings, why aren't all of the proposed things in there? For example, the newly-proposed Hilton expansion, or the Millenial tower, etc? |
:tup:Nice infill!!
|
Just a quick question-do you guys think that some form of urban mass transit (light rail, BRT, streetcar or a combo of all 3) be proposed again with all this infill going on?

Columbus doesn't get a lot of attention but it really looks like it has a lot of momentum in the city proper.

Thanks for posting those updates. I love the infill in Columbus.
|
Nice updates! Good to see! :tup:
|
Impressive infill, but are any of the planned highrises likely to come to fruition ?
|
If I lived in Columbus I'd definitely live at Gay & Long. Sorry, couldn't resist. Great looking projects!
|
Thanks for the updates. You know I'm lazy.
|
So impressed with how far Columbus has come in the last 10 years. The inner ring neighborhoods like German and Victorian Village were always terrific, but it's nice to see downtown (and Franlinkton!?) finally filling in. When I lived there, I never would have guessed how quickly those areas have developed.
