February 2, 20178 yr Another article... $80M housing, retail and office development planned in Harrison West following Battelle land sale A more than $80 million mixed-use development is being planned in Harrison West, with Battelle Memorial Institute reaching a deal to sell about 20 acres of underused land it has owned since the 1980s. Columbus developers Wagenbrenner Development and Fortress Real Estate Cos. are leading a broad plan that includes about 500 apartments, 50 single-family homes, retail space, offices and a 120-room hotel.

February 3, 20178 yr Update: Over 500 Apartments, 128-Room Hotel Planned at Battelle Site More details of the 20-acre mixed-use development proposed for Harrison West are emerging. Over 500 apartment units would be spread over four separate buildings, all clustered toward the Fifth Avenue side of the project and in close proximity to a three-story parking garage with enough room to accommodate 721 cars. A 128-key hotel with a parking lot behind it would front Fifth Avenue on the far western edge of the site. Also proposed for Fifth is a 40,000 square foot building that could hold either a grocery store or offices. Single family housing is planned for the southernmost portion of the site as well as for a rectangle of land that is currently green space at the southeast corner of Fifth and Perry Street.

February 3, 20178 yr That neighborhood needs some more shops. Retail please. This part of town overall has a reputation for all money going to rent and into mouth. That scares retailers.
February 3, 20178 yr Love the overall plan. There is definitely a market for more hotels on this side of the river. This site is actually walkable to OSU, unlike everything over on Olentangy RR. Also great to hear about a boutique grocer being pursued. TJs, Fresh Market, Lucky's, Earth Fare, etc would all do fantastic in this location. ETA - The 5th Ave bus is getting a major upgrade in COTA's TSR as well, which will improve this site's accessibility/usability to transit immensely. Bring on the density!
February 7, 20178 yr The new Italian Village? Harrison West is on fire! Developers buy Superior Beverage site in Harrison West with plans for apartments The Superior Beverage Group office-and-distribution complex in Harrison West has been acquired by a joint venture with plans to raze the property for apartments. Developers Scott Pickett and Mike Schiff purchased the 8 acres at 871 Michigan Ave. for $7.38 million, according to Franklin County Auditor records.

February 11, 20178 yr Ahaha, it was always weird having to drive those narrow pre-war residential streets then having it open up to some large '70s office/warehouse combo.
May 18, 20178 yr Four-Story Building to Bring More New Apartments to Harrison West A four-story mixed-use building is under construction in Harrison West, bringing another 26 new apartment units to the neighborhood. The project, at 840 Michigan Ave., sits just to the north of the 140-unit Trotters Park apartment complex, which was completed in 2015.

July 31, 20177 yr Four-Story Building to Bring More New Apartments to Harrison West A four-story mixed-use building is under construction in Harrison West, bringing another 26 new apartment units to the neighborhood. The project, at 840 Michigan Ave., sits just to the north of the 140-unit Trotters Park apartment complex, which was completed in 2015. More below: http://www.columbusunderground.com/four-story-building-to-bring-more-new-apartments-to-harrison-west-bw1 This project has been shuttered all summer, anyone know what happened? The stairwells and elevator shaft are both complete or near completion too, just plain weird.
August 3, 20177 yr This project has been shuttered all summer, anyone know what happened? The stairwells and elevator shaft are both complete or near completion too, just plain weird. The project developer was listed as "Mulberry" in the CU article, which apparently is this company - http://mulberryohio.com/wordpress/ Mulberry is listed as a boutique development company founded in 2013. And if you look at the portfolio portion of their website, they show a handful of single-family renovation projects centered in the Short North/Italian Village area. Mulberry is also behind one new construction project (25 Jeffrey Park) that is comparable in size with this 840 Michigan Avenue project. 25 Jeffrey Park is three-story condo project located within the larger Jeffrey Park development in Italian Village. However, Mulberry's 25 Jeffrey Park project is not connected to the rest of the much larger Wagenbrenner developed Jeffrey Park. Mulberry apparently outbid Wagenbrenner for this one smaller separate parcel during the bankruptcy auctions for this location. Mulberry's three-story project at 25 Jeffrey Park is being built in three phases. So far only Phase 1 has been completed and phases 2 & 3 have yet to be constructed - shown in the Jeffrey Park thread at https://www.urbanohio.com/forum2/index.php/topic,1289.msg847371.html#msg847371. According to Mulberry's 25 Jeffrey Park website, 4 of the 8 constructed units have been sold, while 3 of the remaining 4 unsold units are "in contract". Since Mulberry is a not a large development company, it could be that they are having a cash flow issue because of too many unsold units from this other big project that they are developing. If that's the case, then selling additional units at 25 Jeffrey Park could resolve this and construction could resume at the 840 Michigan Avenue site. It also could be totally unrelated to that. But there's been no reporting one way or the other to explain the delay at 840 Michigan.
December 8, 20177 yr Harrison West apartments to expand An apartment complex in Harrison West is set to expand. The owners of Thurber Square apartments, 840 Thurber Dr. W., want to create a 21-unit addition with a three-story, 15,000-square-foot building, according to building permits filed with the city of Columbus.The building will be similar to others in the area and built on an empty lot. Florida resident Jeff Craft owns the 3.2-acre property and expects to spend $800,000 on the expansion, according to the permit. A message was left seeking comment.

February 26, 20187 yr Wagenbrenner's Battelle development is moving forward, Columbus City Council set to vote on mixed use property deal The Columbus City Council is expected to vote Monday on an economic development agreement with a developer that plans to build on about 15 acres of mostly vacant property that Battelle Memorial Institute owns. Battelle is selling the property at the southwest corner of West Fifth Avenue and Perry Street for about $17 million to Wagenbrenner Development, said Patrick Jarvis, Battelle’s senior vice president of marketing and communications. Battelle will use that money to update its main campus, and Wagenbrenner plans to build a combination of residential development, retail space, a hotel, parking garage and a public park. The sale should close in the spring, with work to start soon after that. http://www.dispatch.com/news/20180226/columbus-city-council-set-to-vote-on-mixed-use-property-deal

Columbus City Council voted Monday night for the planned redevelopment of 21 acres of land along W. 5th Avenue on land that is owned by Battelle. Perry Street LLC, a joint venture of Columbus developers Wagenbrenner Development and Fortress Real Estate Cos., has been working on the project for 18 months.

February 28, 20187 yr ^^ Nearly 600 units and retail and parkland? Bring it!!!! My only regret is that they don't have a significant tower of say ten or twelve floors as a part of it.
February 28, 20187 yr ^^ Nearly 600 units and retail and parkland? Bring it!!!! My only regret is that they don't have a significant tower of say ten or twelve floors as a part of it. Not the right area of town for a 10+ floor tower, think about it. "With grand view's of State Route 315" Infill is fine in this area.

Not the right area of town for a 10+ floor tower, think about it. "With grand view's of State Route 315" Infill is fine in this area. I was thinking of what appears to be the senior tower on the far west side of the plan. Add more floors and units-probably don't need to add much more parking. And at levels above the garage, the view would be more than a freeway (downtown to the south, OSU campus to the north), just like the Thurber Village buildings don't just have views of 670. *or maybe that is the hotel...
March 30, 20187 yr Battelle Project in Harrison West Moving Forward The team behind the 20-acre redevelopment of the Battelle parking lots south of West Fifth Avenue was back in front of the Harrison West Society this month, outlining the latest plans for the project. Representatives of Wagenbrenner Development, M/I Homes and Continental Real Estate walked through some of the changes in layout and programing that have been made since the plan was first unveiled in February of last year.

More surface parking, less apartments... the opposite direction they should've gone, but far too common with Columbus development. Honestly not that impressed.
March 31, 20187 yr If anything, they actually changed this to be more suburban than urban. More surface parking, less apartments... the opposite direction they should've gone, but far too common with Columbus development. Honestly not that impressed. Agreed. 5th doesn't get much pedestrian activity. Was hoping they were done putting parking lots next to the street in that area.
March 31, 20187 yr I really wonder who the grocer for this will be. The Biz1st article says it's a "national chain" with a "boutique neighborhood concept" 39k is way too big for a Trader Joe's (usually 10-15), but it's about the same size as a standard Whole Foods (though idk about one going in so close to Lane Ave?) Won't be anything from Kroger, GE, or Target either given the location...
March 31, 20187 yr I’m not a fan of the hotel parking lot right on 5th Ave. it’s such a lazy, and safe design solution.

Agreed. 5th doesn't get much pedestrian activity. Was hoping they were done putting parking lots next to the street in that area. It's not like Waggenbrenner doesn't know how to do urban development right. It's just that something seems to always get lost in translation when developers move to these larger-scale developments. They tend to fall back into more suburban layouts, likely because that's what they're used to doing at that scale.
March 31, 20187 yr I’m not a fan of the hotel parking lot right on 5th Ave. it’s such a lazy, and safe design solution. What they could've done is built a garage there with ground-level retail. At least that would've activated the street. It's just too much empty space all around.
April 1, 20187 yr Why is it that Columbus developments always seem to "regress" when they go through revisions? smh. It is a rare moment when things get upgraded (like that place near Grandview Avenue and Dublin road getting the apparent upgrade to a much more dense development).
April 2, 20187 yr ^I think its because Columbus' small developer community (a lot of them are 2nd and 3rd generation family owned) was focused mainly on suburban development until 5-10 years ago. Suburban development is easy and cheap and the rate of return is pretty high. These developers generally don't want to absorb the higher costs of urban development and try to apply suburban solution to urban projects. Costs drove the changes to the Battelle project. That said, I think that some are getting the hang of urban development - underground parking, higher densities, etc. Some firms are better than others.
April 2, 20187 yr Definitely a disappointing regression. The original rendering I thought was pretty realistic overall. This updated one with the setback grocery and surface parking and setback hotel is definitely just trying to cater to retailers/hotels that are pointing to every other hotel and grocery in that kind of neighborhood in Columbus and whining that they look inaccessible without the surface parking. The hotel should definitely be utilizing a parking deck solution -- look at the Courtyard on the Ohio River in Covington, KY. The grocer would definitely be more difficult to amuse -- people driving to a grocery store want to see a quick in-and-put and parking garages scare people away from that. Their goal is just to look like they can get people in the door as easily as possible.
May 17, 20187 yr Coffee Shop and Apartments Planned for Historic Neil Avenue Church A historic church building at 1334 Neil Ave. will be getting the adaptive reuse treatment. A coffee shop and apartments are planned for the building, which sits at the corner of West Sixth Avenue, tucked neatly into the fabric of the Dennison Place neighborhood. Built in 1880, the building was home to the Neil Avenue United Presbyterian Church until 1965, when it was sold to the Columbus Mennonite Church. That congregation remained in the building until 1998, when it sold the property and moved to Clintonville.

June 7, 20187 yr This isn't one of the biggest development projects, but it is interesting as an example of how High Street development in the Short North can push existing businesses to relocate and redevelop nearby areas: Slated for demolition, Short North child-care center expanding in move to Harrison West By Carrie Ghose – Staff Reporter, Columbus Business First May 30, 2018, 6:53am A child-care center has teamed up with a tech entrepreneur and prominent Central Ohio developer on a $3 million renovation to a Harrison West office building to replace a Short North site slated for demolition. Little Dreamers Big Believers LLC has grown to three locations with 355 children and 100 employees since 2007, when founder Sarah Eichorn, then 19 years old, leased space on North High Street and Third Avenue. The center was full within six months and still has a waiting list, but the building will be torn down by December to make way for a five-story apartment complex. The center will move a mile west into a former civil engineering office at 870 Michigan Avenue in Harrison West. The move will increase the center's capacity to 158 children from 115. Celmark Development Group is finishing the basement and building a first-floor addition to increase space from 7,800 square feet to nearly 14,000 square feet. Part of the existing parking lot will be converted to a nature-themed playground. MORE: https://www.bizjournals.com/columbus/news/2018/05/30/slated-for-demolition-short-north-child-care.html
June 21, 20186 yr Grocery Store Dropped from Plans for Battelle Land More changes have been made to the plan to develop 20 acres of Battelle land south of West Fifth Avenue. Most significantly, a 39,000 square foot grocery store – which was included in a proposal presented to the neighborhood in March – has been dropped from the plan. A representative of Wagenbrenner Development, the company that has been spearheading the project since it was first announced in February of last year, said that the tenant that had been lined up for the grocery store spot recently backed out of the project, leading to the changes.

July 2, 20186 yr $160M Harrison West redevelopment changing plans A $160 million mixed-use development in Harrison West is seeking more input from neighbors as it changes plans. Wagenbrenner Development has told the Harrison West Society that it's changing the proposal for 21 acres owned by Battelle between 5th and 3rd avenues and west of Perry Street. A high-end grocery story had been projected as an anchor tenant with a 40,000-square-foot space there, but has withdrawn from the project, according to information from Harrison West Society.

September 22, 20186 yr There's a lot wrong with that project but I feel like it will probably move ahead as planned. They have structured parking along 5th street where they put metal screening and openings to the garage facing the sidewalk. That's not a good pedestrian friendly design and makes for a bad streetscape. The hotel is setback with surface parking from 5th which makes the park area front the hotel nicely but it's bad for 5th, and as a new build you'd think they could just make the garage big enough so that they wouldn't need any surface parking. You'd think these urban infill projects would be more "urban" but surface parking lots facing walkable urban streets in historic neighborhoods shows a suburban mentality from the developer and the city isn't willing to crack down on bad design as if that's going to somehow make developers not build in Columbus. People want to be here and build here so why not make what gets built nicer?

People want to be here and build here so why not make what gets built nicer? I can't see the full article, but it looks like the hotel (westernmost building, I thought) has no setback with surface parking in back now based on the new rendering. Or is that an old rendering? I've lived within a quarter mile of this site for 5 years now, and I walk/bike past it almost every day on my commute. I agree with everything you're saying about wanting all the cars in a more well-hidden structure, but this is such a huge leap from what we have there now and it is going to permanently preserve a lot of that privately owned green space. Would I be happier with even more green space, all single-family home infill to keep traffic low, and keeping the grocery store? Yeah, sure, but I am willing to trade a lot to keep that park on third. The fact is, the parking structure is going to be contiguous with Battelle's surface lots and OSUWMC as you go north, not a residential neighborhood. Nobody is ever going to be fooled walking down that stretch of 5th that they aren't in an area with a bunch of big buildings and parking lots. More trees isn't going to change that on the opposite side of fifth you have a gigantic surface lot backed by big air exchange machines and Battelle's shipping and receiving. I would be happiest if the apartments on the east side were less modern and stepped back from Perry as they went up, that way it would merge a bit more cleanly with those lovely homes on Vermont. Otherwise, I see this as a huge win for the neighborhood.

None of what is shown here reflects the current proposal, but this one is closest to it: I don't agree with the logic in your post that essentially is saying because the Battelle site is badly designed and has poor urban form, that lets this brand new project off the hook from being as good as it can be. Battelle may redevelop their entire campus, they may move from this location, or redevelop surface parking in exchange for structured parking. You can't assume the north of this site is going to stay the same forever. I don't oppose this project, I think it will be good for the neighborhood I just think that small tweaks are being overlooked that would make it a much better contribution to the neighborhood.

If you look at the Business First rendering (and I'm assuming this is more current than the site plan) it looks like the hotel is now on 5th Ave. with surface parking south of the building. It also looks like the structured parking is not directly on 5th.
September 22, 20186 yr No, I'm not. The Business First rendering is very old. I've seen the most recent plans for this project as of this week. There is surface parking along 5th between the hotel and the structured parking abuts 5th at the sidewalk.
September 22, 20186 yr That rendering is very old. I think Biz1st just used it because they had it on file, which is misleading and confusing You can see the exact same image here in a post from February 2017 - https://www.urbanohio.com/forum/index.php/topic,2473.msg838352.html#msg838352

There is surface parking along 5th between the hotel and the structured parking abuts 5th at the sidewalk. Based on the newer site map you posted I am definitely more inclined to agree with your criticism, although my least favorite parts are the more massive apartment block design and skinnier southern green space.

Look at the developers involved - M/I Homes, Daimler and Continental are essentially suburban developers. Thanks for the clarification.
September 28, 20186 yr :( Battelle Development Now Called Founders Park, Could Break Ground Before Year’s End The 20-acre development planned for Battelle parking lots in Harrison West has a new name, a revised site plan, and a chance to break ground before the end of the year. Now called Founders Park, the latest tweaks to the layout and programming of the development were presented to the Harrison West Society earlier this month. That group signed off on the necessary zoning variances, clearing the way for the project to go before City Council and for the development team to start pulling permits and planning for construction. Joseph Reidy, General Counsel for Wagenbrenner Development, said that site grading could start before the end of the year, followed by infrastructure work and the first vertical construction as soon as next spring. He stressed that the exact timeline will depend on “additional approvals that we’re waiting on from the city.” More below: https://www.columbusunderground.com/battelle-development-now-called-founders-park-bw1 "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers
September 29, 20186 yr Sad that it got progressively worse with each iteration. Better than a parking lot I guess. I still do not understand why they did not make it more 'urban' given the location. I bet that parking lot across the street will not remain in that state forever-that could have been a nice urban little stretch of street. Oh well. I do like the look of the single family homes. Very nice looking in the rendering.
