A new mixed-use development in Italian Village will have a distinctly industrial flavor, per new images revealed to the neighborhood commission.

 

A look at the 175-unit apartment project proposed at 274 First Ave.

Yeah I have always noticed that while driving 4th. I’m surprised they haven’t just buried them.

And people say Columbus has no grit.

Perhaps I'm a minority but the wires there never bothered me. I find them an aspect of city life. Maybe not as charming as arches to carry electricity but I'm definitely not in the boat that thinks they *should* or *need* to be buried. And with the area being what it is, I think the best that could be hoped for is alley access. Burying those lines would be several times over the average '$1mil per mile'. Not accounting for any complications of sewer gas and water in one of the oldest parts of the city.

Couple of Italian Village project photo updates from https://www.columbusunderground.com/construction-roundup-april-2020-we1

 

First, a photo of the three-story building built on the Spring Cleaners site at the northwest corner of North Fourth Street and East First Avenue:

Can someone remind me what's happening with the other half of this site? They only built up to the corner, but in between this building and the Exile development to the north is a blank space... are we getting a surface parking lot?

The mess of telephone and electricity wires have always looked third world to me. If you streetview Dhaka or Lagos they're everywhere. Singapore and Switzerland not so much. In the US most new neighborhoods have all the infrastructure underground because its cheaper to do it at construction. Undergrounding of utilities in an already built up area is very expensive but because of aesthetics and clearing the sidewalk for amenities it's often worth it in the prime locations of a city where you want to put your best face forward to residents and visitors. In my opinion 4th is getting to the point where they need to be put underground. The streetscape doesn't need to be as nice as High Street or downtown but a cohesive look with more street trees, benches, lighting, etc would be helpful to string all the new development together.

There's another building back there that appears to be being restored but also that area is the driveway access from the apartment buildings parking to the street.

Below is an aerial of this stretch of Fourth Street from 2017 - prior to all this recent new residential/mixed-use development.  The Spring Cleaners site is #2 on the aerial and the "Exile" site is #4 on the aerial.  In between is a parcel labeled #3.  Parcel #3 had a single-story commercial garage along the back alley (which another poster noted is being renovated).  Parcel #3 also contained a two-story house at 889 N. 4th Street.

This is project #3 on the aerial - a two-story house at 889 N. 4th Street.  The Business First report noted that the Italian Village Commission required that this house stay among the larger developments planned in this 4th Street block:

24629927958_3a14c7114b_o_d.png

26726171399_2ecf73edac_n_d.jpg

 

Back when I posted this info from Business First back in 2017, all they said about this two-story house was that "the Italian Village Commissioners fought to save the five-bedroom house that was built in 1900".  Now if we look at the many Google streetviews of this area, we find that the house at 889 N. Fourth Street was there in August 2017 - but was not there in July 2018.  During that time, the building on the Exile site - which is located only a few feet from the house at 889 - was constructed.

 

I haven't heard why the house at 889 got removed.  But given that the house was vacant and not in the best condition - and given that heavy construction was happening only a few feet next door - it would not surprise me to learn that the foundation and/or structural integrity of the house at 889 did not survive, and that an emergency demolition order might have been issued.

 

Which is the context to basically saying that I have no idea what the Spring Cleaners developer has in mind for this now-vacant lot.  It sounds like if the Italian Village Commission would have let them build all the way over to the neighboring Exile building, they probably would have done it.  But since they built to the limits of the two pre-existing buildings on the site, they may not have any plans for it.  Or if they do, I've not heard anything.

The building that is being renovated reminds me of the Cosecha building just down 4th a bit. It could be a cool restaurant with the front part maybe being an outdoor patio space

I passed by here on a run this morning; from what I could tell, most if not all of the area in front of the small building will be parking and driveway access to what appears to be a garage on the left. Curb had already been built and gravel had been laid for paving.

Hopefully it can still be some kind of restaurant or used as a useful space.

Looks like the developer of the surface lot along 2nd Ave has returned with an updated proposal.

 

Most interestingly is the developer has also included a letter of hardship regarding setback variances. The current requirements are 10' and the developer is asking for a reduction to 4' or zero in some places. The commission pushed back in the previous iteration regarding setback reductions impacting the availability of "light and air" to surrounding structures. Curious to see how they respond this time around.

^^ "light and air"?? Good Lord the thing is 5 floors and probably less than 75 feet high. Not exactly a highrise we are talking about here. I hope it gets the variances it needs.

I guess you'd have to see the site plan to see how close it's getting to the building complex to the south? They can't possibly mean street setbacks not allowing light/air... can they? lol

 

I'm also growing really tired of these boxes adding "pop of color" accents as if it's an architectural detail... ?

Second Avenue Project Tops Italian Village Commission Agenda

 

The Italian Village Commission was scheduled to vote on a proposed 155-unit mixed-use development on East Second Avenue earlier this week, but a discussion of the project was delayed due to the large number of cases on the agenda.

 

Many of the city’s review boards and historic commissions are dealing with similar challenges, having to hold meetings virtually for the first time as they work their way through a backlog of cases. The city cancelled all public meetings in March, at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic.

 

JDS Companies is the developer behind the proposal, which calls for a five-story, L-shaped building at the southeast corner of Second Avenue and Sixth Street. The site is currently a large surface parking lot.

I despise the parking lot at the spring cleaners. I understand It but It also is a big miss for me. At the very least, different materials such as pavers or other permeable surfaces should have been requested on such a small lot. No buffer between the lot and the sidewalk on the northern half. Just very off-putting for an otherwise nice project. 

 

Has anyone else noted that the Electrical Buildngs are being worked on as well?

Edited by DTCL11

I also hate how narrow the sidewalks are on 4th. Projects like the Spring Cleaners site make it such a claustrophobic pedestrian experience. I hope they end up doing a similar project as in the Short North where they widen the sidewalks, add street trees, and then also do a permanent bike lane treatment, etc. And maybe underground some of the power lines. (My dreams are expensive)

 

Also, SO glad to see the Bethany Baptist Church renovation moving forward. I was worried after the fire there would be some structural issues with that project but seemingly not!

I agree -- my guess is that in order to land office tenants they needed to have some form of parking. Sometimes those small gripes that I have are one of the main reasons the project was (or is projected to be) feasible. Pavers or some sort of higher-end treatment would have made for a nice compromise.

Ive been thinking this same thing about 4th since living in the area -- Eliminate the street parking on one side, keep two lanes for vehicular traffic and do a permanent (protected with concrete divider) bike lane. Toronto neighborhoods do something very similar in regard to eliminating parking on one side of a one way street in order to have a bike lane(s). There is not alot of real estate to work with along that stretch.

That doesn't match the approved plans, I checked everything I could access on the city's website and there's parking lot screening shown at the 4th street sidewalk line to screen the spaces directly adjacent to the street. Just like the projects downtown since no one inspects for these types of issues they get missed...

Yea, and Toronto has done this on major shopping streets (equivalent to the Short North), so there's no reason not to do so on 4th. And their separated lanes are also raised, which requires less width in tight ROWs. Arguably, both 4th and Summit should be converted to 2-way streets, too, because that's the only true way to slow down their traffic.

I'm posting this SID news only in this Italian Village thread and not in the Weinland Park thread because this new SID is almost entirely south of 5th Avenue and within the Italian Village boundaries.  Only a handful of properties in Weinland Park north of 5th Avenue are included:

 


New district will pay for security, streetscape improvements in Italian Village, Weinland Park

 

A sprawling new district where property owners will pay for additional security and neighborhood beautification efforts in Italian Village and a slice of Weinland Park will begin providing services next year.  The Fifth Avenue and Fourth Street Special Improvement District will provide services similar to those the Downtown-area special improvement districts provide, such as security, streetscape improvements such as planter baskets and flower beds, litter and graffiti removal, and market studies.

 

To form such a district, proponents obtained the signatures of property owners representing at least 60% of the front-footage along the streets.  The property owners pay assessments to fund the district’s programs.  Columbus City Council approved the new special improvement district in May and the plan of services in June.  A board of trustees for this new SID has yet to be created.

 

Two major developers with interests in the area — Thrive Companies (Wagenbrenner Development) and the Lykens Companies, have been supportive of this new SID.  Mark Wagenbrenner, Thrive’s president, used to serve on the board of the Short North Special Improvement District, and he called that a catalyzing force in helping to make the Short North what it is today.  The Short North Alliance will help run the new Fifth Avenue and Fourth Street SID.

Italian Village warehouses to be redeveloped

 

New details have emerged about a plan to redevelop a pair of warehouses in Italian Village.

FYI:  I see this is behind a paywall, so here's a bit more about the renovation plans from the article:

Quote

Developer Kevin Lykens has filed a proposal with the city to revive two warehouse buildings at 777 N. 4th Street.  The buildings sit along the busy 4th Street corridor, where Lykens and other developers have been repurposing industrial sites for new uses.

 

Details submitted to the Italian Village Commission indicate Lykens wants to convert one of the buildings into a 5,250-square-foot restaurant space with a 900-square-foot seasonal patio.  A second building on the site could be converted to up to 24 residential units, the documents show.

315-Unit Development Proposed for Italian Village

 

The-Lusso-site-plan-620x405.jpg

 

Two local developers are teaming up to bring over 300 apartments to the northeastern corner of Italian Village.

 

The proposal, announced today by Homestead Companies and Lykens Companies, calls for 315 units and 398 parking spaces to be built on eight of the 22 acres that make up the Clark Grave Vault site.

 

A five-story apartment building and four-story townhomes are being proposed for the first phase of the development, which will be heard by the Italian Village Commission on October 13.

 

That portion of the proposal would be located on the south side of East Fifth Avenue, adjacent to the railroad tracks that form the neighborhood’s eastern boundary and just north of the large, green-roofed buildings that make up the Clark Grave Vault manufacturing facility.

I was very pleasantly surprised to see underground parking, and two levels! Hopefully this catches on. Also the renderings for this look great. 

 

Side note, you couldn't pay me to live that close to a railroad track. I live ~3/4 mile from that same line and you can still hear the trains at night, I couldn't imagine being next to the thing. But to each their own.

I think if they build it right, it won’t be bad. People that live in the gravity building said they aren’t bothered by the train that goes by there.

It’s not nearly as bad as it sounds. I currently live next to a railroad crossing and I hardly notice it. My wife and my best friend both grew up direct next to railroad tracks and they both actually find the sound of the trains relaxing. 

This all looks great.

Yeah the underground parking is great. They can do it here-but not someplace like downtown? hmmmm...

 

I also wish I knew what the were thinking about for the second part farther south. I like everything they have depicted for the upper first part-the townhouses look cool with the top floor outdoor spaces.  So much going on in Italian Village.

Some updated photos on the Wood Cos. Lincoln at Pearl project, which includes a 260-space garage, a 5,000-square-foot restaurant space and 16 apartments.  Updated photos are from this 10/8 Business First article about construction in the Short North, Victorian Village and Italian Village:

The parking garage facing Pearl Street is built to look like a warehouse:

Look at that parking garage...and then look at the garage at the Convention Center.

Same architect but different client and budget.

Looks like Parkside on Pearl is making its way back to the IVC Agenda for November. 

 

The newest version may be the most handsome in my opinion, I am excited to see this project is alive. I followed up with a few contacts and it seems the project is looking to break ground early next year if approved quickly. 

 

Overview of the Project

- 8 Stories 

- Height of ~92'

- 51 parking spaces on 3 levels (1 below ground, 2 above)

- 1 Floor of Leasable Office Space

- 37 Apartment Units

Additionally... A new Project is being proposed off E 3rd Ave, tucked behind Station 324.

 

Looks like this proposal is a joint Homestead and Lykens project. While I am excited to see the continues infill, have to admit this project isn't exactly a the most attractive IMO. Either way, yay for more density and hopefully the design will be tweaked a bit along the way.

 

Overview of the Project

- Two buildings, one 3 Stories and the other 4 Stories 

- Height of ~45'

- 134 Units

- 164 at grade and underground parking spaces

That is great infill, but the design is trash. So hopefully they do have them change it up a bit.
