Shannon & Winchester Pike is near Rickenbacker? I mean, it's not that far, but I was picturing Bixby, Rohr or Lockbourne. Not far SE/Groveport/Canal area. Also, agreed about the forested location, why couldn't they put it at the corner of the two roads? That intersection could use some development anyway.

Which is why my favorite views of the city will always be from I-70 WB before Kelton/Miller and then at the Downtown Exit by Children's Hospital

Why do I feel like the environment looks real but the people look rendered? 😆

Considering the Capital Line Plan linked earlier stated that the visibility of the river was crucial to the goals and branding of the project, they'll probably wouldn't plant too many trees to block the view. However, with that said, I would really like to see more benches, even if they're further up by Marconi where there's more shade.

Indeed! That's not even the whole skyline! There's still the River South portion 😉

Hahaha, I posted that.

A new Kroger (with additional lots) potentially coming to the Diley & Busey Rd intersections. If you're in downtown Pickerington/Central High School area, you may now have 3 choices lol. https://www.nbc4i.com/news/local-news/canal-winchester/kroger-proposes-new-canal-winchester-grocery-store-gas-station/

While I'm also for retail and walkable communities, I'm afraid I'm not thrilled about this development due to the location. Pickerington should be proposing this scale projects on their end of Diley (although they DO already have Meijer but still). Diley is a large road that's often clear/empty, so it can accommodate traffic and has good access to 33. Pickerington is severely bottlenecked at 256 and I-70 and Refugee isn't that great as a connector/arterial, not to mention this is just sprawling more homes away from the freeway. I feel like a decade ago ODOT proposed adding a complete interchange at Taylor Rd as an alternative and yet here we are.

Here's more pictures!

Do you think there will be additional refining on the facade? Because the brick seems to be more layered/accented in the renderings too.

Progress at Parkline!

I've been waiting for something like this for a long time! I always found it odd that the East half of Reynoldsburg-New Albany Road featured no development clear up to Dublin-Granville. All for extending Market St! But...another interesting and questionable roadway reconfiguration with the Third realignment: why cut off Johnstown/62 like that? I guess on one hand, the curve in between Dublin-Granville And High is incredibly narrow so it does avoid that. Also, is it my imagination do the designers in Columbus purposefully engineer kinks/bends in new roadways when it could be a straight path? (middle of orange Market St)?

Hmm, I think I'd rather take this though than one of the naked balconies on 88, lol.

I never thought of looking at it from that angle! That's great, especially if it peaks above the Police Building 😃

One thing I appreciate about this is that it'll at least give more accurate/easily-identifiable census records when looking things up for Pickerington. Like, I've always identified as Pickerington being smaller than most of its peers (at >25,000 people) only to find it may just only be accounting for the City Boundary which is just 256 and the Pickerington Central area South of Refugee. Obviously I'm sure most people would figure that Harmon Rd, Milnor Rd, 204 area and Pickerington North area would be part of the City too, so I'm curious to see how that shakes up the numbers. Edit: The area being referred to -- though a considerable size, is not substantial in including the bulk of residences than I anticipated lol. Still, my point stands about Pickerington being bigger than realized if we're just going by numbers.
