Somebody has a friend now! And other work around the site continues ahead of the upcoming street widening projects.

Yes! I checked today when we were out there. You can actually see them from 161 just before you exit at Beech

Energy Advancement and Innovation Center in Carmenton

And we're finally vertical at the Rice Paddy!

Few more looks at the Blakely

This is great news for the area. This site has been in need of some serious TLC for years. I've been wondering what they were doing there. Heavy machinery has been parked on W Barthman near High for over a week now and it looks like they might have already started cleaning some of the site up. Also, the Steelton Village development will extend north to the land behind Dan's Drive In on the west side of the tracks- this would be in the same area but on the east side of the tracks, essentially connecting the two developments!

Seems to be moving along at a decent pace

More signage going up at Quarry Trails yesterday

The footprint of the office building will go all the way back to the corner of Neiland Dr and Nationwide Blvd

Couple quick ones of the new library branch in Gahanna

All the old buildings are finally down at Broad and Hamilton!

Some pedestrian related upgrades continue in the Eastland area... Sidewalks are being built on the south side of Refugee Rd from near Winchester Pike to Hamilton Rd Work has also started on shared-use paths on the north side of Refugee Rd And along S Hamilton Rd, concrete work has started on the shared-use paths on the west side of the road New sidewalks on the east side of Hamilton Rd from near Refugee Rd to near Groves Rd were completed a couple months ago.

Townhomes at Gravity 2

Just a little further north along South High from the Steelton Village site- construction has started recently on a plot of land just west of S Wall St between Morrill Ave and Hinman Ave. (Right behind the Southside Baptist Church) Just curious if anyone knows what's being built there?

I think Steelton Village is going to make a huge difference for that entire area. I noticed yesterday, there's more pieces of heavy machinery near the back of the site where they've started the initial clean-up work. Unfortunately, it's hard to get very close because when they are not there they gate it off, and when they are there, it's a very busy area with lots of dump trucks in and out.

There's numerous "development opportunities" for sale now along South High on both sides of 104, from the Steelton Village site south to basically Alcott Rd, with one big plot already marked as "sale pending". It will be interesting to see what happens with that stretch of South High in the near future.

Yesterday evening from Kingsdale

Numerous phases of townhomes going up at Beulah Park I had to be extra careful getting these last two because of the guard dog!! 😂

Harriet's Hope from near Central Ave

I was out near Scioto Downs a little earlier so I snatched a couple quick ones of the new grandstands And construction at the Google Data Center complex continues to move south towards Scioto Downs as well

I'm pretty sure they already started work on this! If it's where I think it is, it's very noticeable when coming up Alum Creek Dr from 104
