September 1, 20222 yr One crane comes down (Gravity 2), another crane goes up (Parkside on Pearl). That seems to be a recurring theme around here nowadays and I'm greatly enjoying it.

September 21, 20222 yr Was in the SN tonight, so snapped a few pics from the Hubbard garage. Parkside on Pearl progress: And sunset with OSU in the background:

The Short North Alliance & 800 N High have filed an application for a large painted mural on the south wall of the Moxy, overlooking the Eagle patio. I am personally insanely excited to see another huge mural in the city and SN... BONUS, it isn't vinyl! The artist is local artist Stephen Davis and it'll be title "The Heart of Columbus". Looks like they just had this artist paint this mural on the wood planks next to Hyde Park. Such a shame in my opinion. Short North makes me so mad with their conservative approach to the art they allow.

The people that own it have owned it since 1985.

October 30, 20222 yr It’s super surprising to me there’s not even been some sort of proposal, attempt to open a new business there, anything. It’s been over five years since the Family Dollar closed, and nothing. Very weird.

I remember when I started getting that stuff(unsolicited). It was...well...unsettling. hahaha. *I bet I am the oldest person on here-especially if we include lifelong Columbusites/Central Ohioans. OT...we need multiple Parkside-on-Pearl projects in many nooks in crannies of the older parts of the city. And I remember the shudder I felt when I learned about the owners of the place being "Suburban Centers". Yikes they need to sell. Edited October 30, 20222 yr by Toddguy

I need them to sell that site on High in Clintonville as well.
November 20, 20222 yr Greenhouse can now be seen from High St. Got a few from Price Ave while i was in the area.
November 21, 20222 yr I wonder if they’ll eventually switch to a tower crane. It looks like they’re running out of space to maneuver the current truck crane.

Strangely enough, I don't believe Kaufman has ever used a tower crane until recently with Gravity 2. I really do not know why but neither 250 High nor 80 on the Commons used tower cranes, they both used crawlers. Kind of interesting.

November 23, 20222 yr I hadn’t even realized the 12 story Hubbard tower had received approval from the neighborhood, but apparently it did, and it will go before City Council early next month for a vote of approval.

Wow, that is great to hear! No crazy pushbacks on height or massing! It really is a gorgeous proposal and I cannot wait to see this one go up.

A self-erecting tower crane is in place now at Greenhouse. I’m guessing the operator maneuvers it remotely?

I've always wondered what these tower crane operators do if an emergency bowel movement comes knocking. Imagine climbing down a 400ft ladder or narrow staircase in that situation? Now they can operate cranes right from the toilet!
December 2, 20222 yr I had a roof put on a couple months ago and the shingles came on a remotely operated crane truck. The driver got out and lifted the shingles onto the roof using a similar transmitter to what you'd use to fly an R/C airplane.
December 22, 20222 yr Nothing like a proposal for a new 10-story tower in the Short North to give us all a merry Xmas! As proposed to the Italian Village commission, it would replace the building that housed the Garden, and it would replace the small surface parking lot for Stonewall Columbus. It would contain a mix of ground floor retail, 60 apartment units, and a 3 level parking structure with 60 spots. It sounds like it’s in partnership with Stonewall, and the tenth floor would include a wellness center open to their members and the public. (In even better SN related news, both twins who were kidnapped from the neighborhood this week have been found alive!)

Yeah I remembered that being posted on here before. I hadn’t realized there was a proposal back in 2017 to redevelop the site, though. From those meeting minutes, it sounds like the IV commission back then was really opposed to demoing the Garden building. Wonder if the developers will run into similar opposition now? I really like how this rendering looks.
December 23, 20222 yr I wonder if the commission will take issue with the facade. It's rather unremarkable but it is unique in that there aren't any other tiles ones like that I can recall. They made a similar argument about the Stonewall facade. Yes it's plain, but it's not replicated elsewhere. It should be an easy fix and honestly I think that would look better than the jagged street front. I think that zigzag is the only thing I dont really like about it.
December 23, 20222 yr I like the angled facades above but agree with @DTCL11that it looks odd at the ground level If they preserve the existing 1-story tile base and keep the rest of it as proposed I think it's a winner Edited December 23, 20222 yr by NW24HX
