I thought I read somewhere that since they bought the PINS downtown building that they were planning on putting the 16 bit games there, maybe on the 2nd floor? I guess they bought the PINS building due to the delay in the Peninsula buildings where they were originally going to go.

Crane accident closing 70E until approximately noon. https://www.nbc4i.com/news/local-news/columbus/crane-accident-closes-i-70-in-downtown-columbus/

Seems like it might be worth a 311 call were someone so inclined. Nothing wrong with holding developers feet to the fire if they promise something to the city and aren't delivering.

Looks good, build it now!

I believe they had 6 billion in revenue and 422 million in profit. Figures are from memory and should be considered approximations.

That part of the road is 2 way to allow access to Civic Center drive. The rest of Mound is one way.

Maybe Dirty Frank's could move into the Hadley's space. With 16 bit moving eventually to the peninsula, that would limit the damage to the existing businesses in the area. Only the psychic would be out of luck, and you would have thought they'd seen this coming.

I've heard a rumor of a new arts facility for the Columbus symphony for that piece of land, but not clear to me how much fire is behind that smoke.

I actually have a bet with my wife about how many buildings 15 stories or higher will be built or in the process of being built between 2020 and 2030. I say 17. She says 12.

Bombulum, eh? Interesting choice of LLC name. https://worldofdictionary.com/dict/latin-english/meaning/bombulum

https://www.bizjournals.com/columbus/news/2022/01/28/huntington-steve-steinour-fy2021-earnings.html Interesting quote at the end of this article. Steve Steinour is CEO of Huntinton bank, and also Co-Chair of the Columbus partnership. Kenny is Kenny McDonald, the new CEO of the Columbus Partnership. "This Intel announcement is huge, but Kenny and team will have other announcements coming in the course of ’22," Steinour told Business First. "It’s a very exciting time to be here in Central Ohio."

I was walking my dog by Bicentennial park about 3 AM or so when I saw the smoke. All the emergency equipment I saw was on the peninsula itself. If there is no damage, I have no reasonable explanation. It looked like something was burning directly to the west of the office building. The timing of the house fire doesn't really explain what I saw.

There are several cars regularly parking in the Matan, and there appear to be some occupied apartments based on lights at night. Could they finally be moving in residents?

There was a fire last night, it appeared from one of the buildings going up on the peninsula. I couldn't see which one from my vantage point, but there was significant smoke and emergency vehicles there.

Does anyone know if Moody Nolan has the experience to design an urban tower? The portfolio on their website doesn't inspire confidence. Outside the 26 story OSU hospital expansion, it looks like the tallest buildings they've done are the Short North Moxy, and the Bridge Park AC Hotel. It just doesn't seem like the firm you'd hire if you were really interested in something with significant height.
