  1. I didn't say the downtown was accurate. I said the comparison within the zip code was accurate. 44113 is mostly outside of downtown so it wouldn't be accurate either. Also, 44114 is more than half of downtown so this metric is most certainly not off by a factor of two.
  2. It goes by zip code. Since zip code boundaries haven't changed it's still an accurate representation of before and after COVID.
  3. Not a typo. https://www.dispatch.com/story/business/real-estate/2023/04/26/welcome-to-columbus-most-expensive-apartment-all-8000-of-it/70139749007/ "For that almost $8,000 a month rent, the tenant will get 2,157 square feet of space, 25-foot ceilings, a balcony off each of the three bedrooms, a 48-foot-long living and kitchen space, three-and-a-half bathrooms, and floor-to-ceiling windows with a postcard view of Downtown from the 11th-floor perch." "One at the Peninsula is one of at least four Columbus-area complexes with apartments that rent for more than $5,000 a month, according to Apartments.com. Others include: Hubbard Park Place, 797 N. Wall St. in the Short North, where a 1,750-square-foot, three-bedroom, three-bath apartment can reach $5,995. The Quarry, near Marble Cliff on the West Side, where a three-bedroom, three-bath, 1,537-square-foot townhome with attached garage rents for $5,063. Bridge Park, off Riverside Drive in Dublin, where a four-bedroom, three-bath, 2,792-square-foot townhome tops out at $5,600."
  4. Downtown Columbus is the 4th most recovered from Covid. Apparently out of 63 North American cities. Cincinnati is 32nd. Cleveland 58th. warning; not mobile-friendly: https://downtownrecovery.com/dashboards/recovery_ranking.html
  5. Here we can see Greenhouse and Parkside on Pearl in the background. Here we can see the Peer crane, Rambler crane, Verve, Crossline, and 4th and 5th in the background.
  6. Woof to the panels from me. It looks like panels you'd line your DIY music studio with. They haven't aged well and it's less than ten years old. Then you have the plexiglass looking windows with no framing, the exposed balconies, and the fact it looks nothing like its renderings. Not to mention the original proposal (also ugly to me) was 17 floors that they nixed to twelve because "we don't have apartment demand".
  7. Hopefully the black panels don't turn out like the Kaufman Commons building ::shudders::

    I think doing East and West Conferences really hurts NBA and NHL. By saturated I mean adding Vegas and Seattle makes nine teams west of the Rocky Mountains. That's 28% of the teams for ~20% of the US population. I will say the markets are spread out well. So it could work if not ideal. I guess do what NHL does and have Utah move to West - Central Division. I do agree it was dirty to move the Supersonics. Las Vegas is the 40th in DMA size. Although their tourism industry brings a unique element.

    I hear the Sounds do well. Omaha is too small, and college baseball is a whole different ball game. Indianapolis already has NFL and NBA (and they're pushing for MLS). A city their size could not support a MLB team.

    If two people/groups in Nashville and NC have $4 billion+ total for expansion fees, I don't think MLB will give a damn how the Braves feel lol.

    Nashville has a decent market size, but also has three professional teams already. Baseball needs a big market, but also a large, dense urban area to pull attendance. Despite its MSA growth Nashville's urban area is quite a joke. It's so, so spread out. It doesn't have Austin-bad highway infrastructure, but it's also not good. They already have sky high prices. I foresee very rough growing pains soon.

    I really don't get the Nashville appeal. But others seem to. Some tech bro is gonna blow $3-5 billion to get an expansion franchise and stadium in the second hottest city to Austin.
  13. Ohio Health has owned that since 2000.
  14. Phase 8 of Jeffrey Park is 310 units in five stories on 4 acres. My guess is two three story buildings. Although maybe they'll include some green space and a garage and we'll get a six floor.
  15. I could have sworn this was posted somewhere in these forums last year, but I can't find it. New Albany Co. purchases 10 acres for more than $2M https://www.bizjournals.com/columbus/news/2022/07/12/new-albany-company-purchases-vacant-land.html I never realized this is situated in Columbus city limits. Thrive Companies is proposing a 424-unit apartment building/complex here.

    Still think it'll be silly of the NBA to add two additional teams to the West. They're already saturated. I'd look for the Kings and/or Trailblazers to leave within 10-15 years of Las Vegas and Seattle getting teams. As for MLB, one of two bad situations are sorted. Now we wait for Tampa. Do they get a new stadium in the Bay area (haha) or do they move to Montreal? Once they are sorted MLB is adding two teams as well. Nashville seems to be a favorite. Then I'd say Raleigh would be best, but Charlotte seems to be ahead. I see almost no way North Carolina doesn't get a team. Almost 11 million people, plus southern Virginia and South Carolina have no teams between Atlanta and DC. That's crazy to me. But it takes someone with money. If neither NC city has someone with the ability to field a franchise it'll go elsewhere. Perhaps San Antonio? Salt Lake City recently threw their hat in the ring, but as with the NBA the West is already saturated. Don't see that working out long term.

  18. It's called Darby Crossing. You're probably seeing the affordable apartments.
  19. Maybe we can get one of these, too:
  20. Looks like they've upped this to 200 rooms. It'll be 110 feet tall.
  21. Apparently this building's restaurant with a drive-thru space will be 3,500 square feet and occupied by Ohio's first Kura Sushi. On the opposite end of the building occupying 5,000 square feet will be Ohio's first Kindbody. Between the two is still available 3,000 square feet. Can Polaris land another first to Ohio establishment?
  22. You might be able to see from the Peninsula garage.
  23. Imagine if: Millennial - 28 4th & State - 15 4th & Long - 15 Holiday Inn lot - 15 Convention Center Towers - 2 x 15 Harmony Tower - 30 Had all been built?
  24. This is what I talked about in my post back on January 25th. Both DBT and QTS own multiple different plots. I think I figured out the reason. If you look at satellite maps of the New Albany International Business Park you'll see large swaths of mature trees/forests. This is one development in Columbus that isn't down with clear cutting our beautiful trees. If you look at their master plan you'll see large plots of green. This is part of their overarching plan: "The Business Park features park-like settings with natural amenities such as stream corridors and mature trees. Campuses and buildings are connected to a network of leisure trails where employees can walk, jog or bike to City amenities that include restaurants, shops and fitness and cultural facilities."
