Upper Arlington

 

population: 33,836

 

named upper arlington because it is just a little bit up from Marble Cliff, which used to be called Arlington.

an old suburb of columbus, with osu bordering on the east. jack nicklaus grew up here. really expensive, especially in the old areas. i took my bike and camera with me and wandered the streets this morning

 

 

 

first, a look back at columbus and a soybean field

I like it! reminds me of hyde park...

I used to live in Upper Arlington, near the Country Club. I lived just off of Coventry Road. The "nicest" area or Upper Arlington is south of Zollinger Road. But the nicest homes are by the Country Club and off of Tremont Road, Cambridge Blvd., Arlington Ave., Fairfax Road, and Lane Ave. Jim Tressel lives on Tremont Road I believe. But overall, very nice pictures of one of Columbus original and in my opinon, nicest suburbs.

Doesn't do it for me.  Give me some grit in my oyster!

Great pictures. Upper Arlington reminds me of North Shaker Heights and South Cleveland Heights without sidewalks. I like old neighborhoods like that beautiful homes covered with mature leafy trees.

nice work. when i met my spouse we first lived for a few years on elmwood near 5th in columbus in the last apt building in the city limits, the house next door was ua. it was and i bet still is a pretty cool post-college nabe, the other people in our nice brick quad apt building (that is typical around there) were all writers for 'the other paper' weekly rag, so we would all sit around outside every night in the common backyard and i got to hear all the local and ohio political dirt. 5th and grandview are nice urbanish/useful walking around areas, but we when we would walk around ua we would just gawk at the houses.

 

 

Uppity Arlington has more character than a lot of suburbs -- especially in the old downtown and near the old high school. Architect Howard Dwight Smith also did the 'Shoe. And a whole bunch of Columbus schools in the teens and twenties.

Nice pictures.

Nice tour of U.A.
