PERKINS TWP. - Plans for Ashford Park, a 91.5-acre residential and commercial development behind the Sandusky Mall in Perkins Township, received initial approval during a public hearing Tuesday night.

 

Perkins Township Trustees Tom Pascoe and Tim Coleman wanted to table the zoning change from single-family residential to a planned unit development, but Trustee Bill Dwelle voted for the planned unit development.

PERKINS TWP. - Ashford Park, a 91.5-acre residential and commercial development behind the Sandusky Mall, will break ground at the end of the summer, the project's CEO announced Thursday at Plum Brook County Club.

 

The development will feature four towers of condos with first-floor retail areas.

The location of Ashford Park is behind the Sandusky Mall on sprawl-tastic US Route 250, with views of the tourist traffic congestion, a limestone quarry, and a 1960's style subdivision.  The waterfront would have been a nice location for this project :)

"We will create a new reason to come to Sandusky," he said.

 

I found that line to be pretty humorous.

I'd be thrilled to live right by the fabulous Sandusky Mall movie theater.

 

I wonder how many people they are really expecting to draw to this.  If my options were living at this new place or downtown on the water where those new condos are being put in or have been put in (will there be residential space as well at the Battery Park project?), it's an easy decision.  This is just flat out a terrible location to live. 

Whoa!

What a hideous design!  The condos at the Marina District (Battery Park) are going to blow this crap out of the water, so to speak.  HA!

^^^Unfortunately the Marina District is moving along slower than a snail's pace; but at least it's-a moving!!!!

PERKINS TWP - A New Albany company plans a grand residential and commercial development behind Sandusky Mall, but it appears the project has hit some snags.

    Centurion Communities Inc. obtained a zoning change in September 2007 to build Ashford Park, 91.5 acres of luxury condos and retail space along Sandusky Mall Boulevard. In May, Centurion CEO Ryan Goldberg said the project would break ground at the end of the summer, but Perkins zoning inspector Jim Lamb said the township hasn’t seen the final development plan, which must be approved before work can start. “I haven’t talked to anyone since the zoning process was completed,” Lamb said. Goldberg did not return calls last week.
