May 1May 1 Honestly looks really good and will complement the nearby Jones Heel apartments pretty well. Just needs better screening for the garage. Either do murals or line the front side with lobby, amenities or retail.

If the finished product ends up as presented, that would be a huge win for that portion of the neighborhood. Edited May 1May 1 by CMHOhio

May 12May 12 Looks like the Zimmer project on the Whittier peninsula will start soon. I was actually hoping this wouldn’t happen and the land would be sold.
May 21May 21 New multi-use path along the Whittier Street Bridge continues to take shape...Looked like the new lights on the bridge could be installed relatively soon
June 6Jun 6 This is interesting, wonder if they will add some retail, or if it’s required for them to submit a new application. UCT stands for Urban Center and this zoning district allows for mixed-use development, including residential, commercial, and institutional uses, with a high density of mixed-use buildings and is one of several districts in the downtown area

The $10 million will be used to clean a 16.5-acre site on the Whittier Peninsula formerly used as a rail and scrap yard, according to the state. The cleanup will allow Zimmer Development Co. of Wilmington, North Carolina, to proceed with its plans to build an apartment complex consisting of three seven-story buildings, each with 250 to 320 apartments, along with 5,000 square feet of amenity space and 350 parking spaces on the buildings' first two levels. Zimmer said in a news release that it is working with the Audubon Center on the peninsula "to consider sustainable elements to the design, including green roofs, pollinator gardens, rain gardens, bioretention ponds, reflection pools, and community meadows as part of the approximately 10 acres of usable green space that will be open to the public." Work has already started on site cleanup. A Zimmer representative said the company plans to start construction next year on the development." https://www.dispatch.com/story/business/real-estate/2024/08/16/columbus-ohio-grant-hundreds-apartments-whittier-peninsula-development-franklington-brownfield/74825745007/ Haven't been to the peninsula in awhile but noticed for sale signs in multiple spots for this property.
