September 30, 20186 yr New Albany creating city park to connect schools, library, Market Square New Albany has started construction on a $17 million city park that will feature a pedestrian bridge over a stream that will connect cultural, educational and commercial centers in the heart of town. Rose Run Park, named for the stream that runs along Dublin-Granville Road, is expected to boost foot traffic to the 100,000 square feet of retail and offices in Market Square and attract more private development, a city spokesman said. The park is expected to open in late 2019, stretching over about a dozen acres on either side of the street. Mayor Sloan Spalding warned of "some construction pain," including temporary closures of Dublin-Granville.

McCoy Community Center for the Arts at 100 W. Dublin-Granville Road. ...

June 28, 20213 yr "Millennial Apartments" lol I wonder how long it will take for developers to begin realizing that most of the younger end of the Millennial generation are now married and have a kid, and most of the older end are getting ready to send their first kid to college. It seems like most Boomers and many GenXers assume Millennials are still the single recent college grads. They really need to update their view of society.

Just steps away from the New Albany hot spots such as Starbucks, Hudson 29 and Fox in the Snow bakery, the first phase consists of eight units on three floors, with two of those units located on the top floor. Half of the building had been reserved by late summer. Construction is expected to begin this fall, and the building will be ready for occupancy early next year. The second phase will include 10 units with construction planned to begin in early 2023. These high end homes will range from 2,000 to 3,500 square feet. With price points from $1.5 to $2.3 million, the development will represent some of the most expensive housing per square foot in Central Ohio. Each unit also comes with underground, secure and private two-car garages with storage space. Edited October 26, 20222 yr by VintageLife

It’s another reminder of developers trying to keep up with demand for housing stock, some of which is fueled by the Intel development in the New Albany International Business Park. “That area is white hot and, as they say, is about to get hotter,” Weiler said. In other recent development news in the northeast Columbus-New Albany area: • The Stonehenge Co. has proposed a 251-unit apartment complex at 5503 Morse Road in Gahanna. • Donald Kenney Jr., principal of Oxford Circle LLC, looks to build a 95-unit apartment complex at 5470 Hildebrand Road in Blendon Township, in northeast Columbus. • Another developer has proposed building 132 units on 6 acres, or less than 22 units per acre, in the Robinwood Corporate Center in Northland. • Metro Development LLC in 2020 announced plans to construct a 280-unit apartment complex on the west side of North Hamilton Road near Central College Road, west of New Albany. Intel factors into the growth of rental units, Weiler said, but the overall expansion of the business park is fueling the market. “There are so many jobs out there and more coming,” he said." https://www.dispatch.com/story/news/local/communities/new-albany/2022/10/26/developers-working-to-fill-need-for-apartments-in-around-new-albany/69588914007/

WOSU took an in-depth dive into this a couple days ago: "Central Ohio is expected to keep growing at an even-faster pace as big projects like Intel’s semiconductor plants in Licking County come online. Intel promises to bring 3,000 long-term jobs to the region with two semiconductor plants by 2025. The project broke ground this summer in Licking County. The site is busy with activity from workers, trucks and bulldozers. Intel intends to build eight plants in total. The factories are expected to attract suppliers and other businesses to the region. Economist Bill LaFayette said it’s safe to expect more jobs from Intel before and after construction. “The employment at Intel in 10 years, if they completely follow through with their plans could be around 12,000," LaFeyette said. Construction of the first two fabs will take an estimated 7,000 workers. LaFeyette said those jobs should stay in the region in various capacities. “Perhaps not at that level but close to it for the next decade,” he said. “And those workers are going to wait for indirect jobs, too. So, each construction job will lead to another job in the region.” The entire article found here: https://news.wosu.org/2022-10-24/central-ohios-population-growth-to-hasten-as-economic-development-booms-in-the-region

March 2, 20232 yr These houses sound huge 😳 New single-family housing development proposed near New Albany “Woodland Preserve LLC, which is tied to Lewis Center-based Bob Webb Homes, is requesting to rezone a more than 32-acre property for a residential project featuring 58 single-family lots in Jefferson Township. If approved, the site would be rezoned from restricted suburban residential to planned suburban residential, according to a staff report from the Franklin County Planning Commission, which will consider the case at an upcoming meeting. Four properties are included in the rezoning request. Three of the parcels include existing single-family homes and the fourth parcel is vacant. All existing structures will be removed if the project moves forward, the report states. The development, called Woodland Preserve and located on the west side of Reynoldsburg-New Albany Road between Morse Road and Clark State Road, would include 14.5 acres of open space in addition to the residential lots, which measure 1.8 units per acre. The open space encompasses about 45% of the entire area. Forty-nine of the 58 units will measure a minimum of 8,125 square feet. Three others are 7,750 square feet, and the remaining six are 6,500 square feet.“ https://www.bizjournals.com/columbus/news/2023/03/02/bob-webb-homes-housing-development-new-albany.html
