^Nice! Similar to a photo I took back in 2017 except the tower cranes are in different locations.

320 units is a lot! The rooftop pool area was reviewed by the Downtown Commission yesterday. https://columbusunderground.com/downtown-commission-plans-heard-for-salesian-building-continental-centre-pnc-tower-bw1/

Husted grew up in NW Ohio and got his political start in Dayton.

Dolan certainly came off as the adult in last night's GOP debate.

I don’t know much about Dolan down here in Columbus, just that he has the vibe of a suburban high school assistant principal. Our local TV is inundated with GOP ads for this race - each candidate is trying to outdo each other on their love of Trump. Mandel and Gibbons are just idiots though….

Tower cranes on High

Tower crane alert at King and High.

Is Spaghetti Warehouse still open? I agree with cbussoccer, the building should stay. Columbus has so few areas with an industrial vibe, this site has a lot of character. And who knows? Maybe in the future there will be a light rail stop near this location?

^I'm all for this type of project. The jobs in Linden, the quick turn around to build much needed affordable housing....but why does the layout need to look like an 80's era apartment complex? Shouldn't the layout be modern too?

I'm no shopping centerologist, but it seems the leases of anchor retailers are tied into the financing of the center as a whole. Without the stability of a long term lease the developer might not be able to finance the center. That said, the proposed CVS still sucks.

CVS's lease might prevent Casto from making any improvements if it hurts CVS's visibility or parking. I'll bet they can't even tear down the old Giant Eagle. http://www.rosendorflaw.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/ABA-Article-Shopping-Center-Restrictive-Covenants1.pdf

Looks like a Fairfield Inn

Oh, I don't think that’s the answer. CVS and Casto can do better than this.

The Harrison West Society posted updated renderings for the CVS on their Facebook page. There’s a public presentation next week. Still looks like a typical, crappy suburban out parcel. The door configuration and drive through pharmacy is totally car focused. Why isn’t there a door at the corner of Neil and Buttles? The two CVS locations on High at Lane and at Dodridge have two doors.

^That's a huge crane for such a small project.

I agree - it's time to resurrect the blue serpent on the Broad St bridge!! https://columbusunderground.com/never-built-columbus-serpent-mound-canopy-bw1/

Well, McKesson (Cover My Meds) has to pay billions to the States for pushing opioids. I suppose they are pinching pennies... 🙄

They should paint them to look like silos...

^That's awesome! This stretch of W Broad still has a good amount of it's commercial buildings intact. Glad to see the renovation.

I'll bet the roof of the Hubbard Grille couldn't support the load of an amenity space without serious structural modifications.

Tower crane base at King and High. Hard to see - sorry for the poor photo.

1999 - Construction of the Vine St garage. View is from Nationwide looking north along Front St. The public housing towers at Summit and 1st are visible above the Greek Orthodox Cathedral.
