Downtown Columbus
Real estate in Downtown Columbus appeals to those who love to live in the middle of the action. Downtown residents enjoy being within close proximity to all of their favorite restaurants, clubs, theaters and attractions. And with the potential for shorter commutes to and from work, they have more time to take advantage of what the city center has to offer. Some of the welcoming, distinctive residential neighborhoods that make up the heart of Columbus are:
- Arena District
- Brewery District
- Discovery District
- German Village
- Harrison West I* talian Village
- Market Exchange District
- Merion Village
- Olde Towne East
- The Short North
- University District
- Victorian Village
- Weinland Park
- Woodland Park
Some of Columbus’ most unique neighborhoods are the historical districts such as Victorian Village and German Village. These areas are well-known for their strong, welcoming communities and eccentric cultural and architectural flair. Victorian Village boasts some of the finest examples of homes that originated in the Victorian Era, including impressive 2.5-3 story brick homes that show off architecture typical to that period plus many worldly design features. The community of Victorian Village has been historically diverse with people from all different backgrounds, incomes and lifestyles. German Village, which was established by early German settlers in the early 1800s, now contains a mix of people with different heritages and occupations who come together frequently for events and festivals such as the Haus and Garden Tour and Oktoberfest. The neighborhood’s housing trademark is the quaint and sturdy brick cottage.
