Prologue Background 2 Introduction In January of 2000, an agreement was reached that authorized the creation of a Task Force on Design Considerations for the reconstruction of a section of Interstate 670 in northern downtown Columbus. This agreement was con- Columbus State tained in a document called the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA). The MOA was signed by five “signatory agencies”: the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT), the Advisory Coun- cil on Historic Preservation (Council), the Ohio Historic Preservation Office (OHPO), and the City of Columbus; and seven “concurring party” interest Italian Village groups. The agreement was created to address the concerns of surrounding Downtown Columbus neighborhoods regarding the potential negative impacts that a widened I-670 Convention Center might have on existing historic districts and the community as a whole. Short North Arena District The I-670 improvement project involves the reconstruction and widening of an existing portion of Interstate 670 from Neil Avenue on the west to Cleveland Avenue on the east (red highlight on photo to right — note North is to the left). Victorian Village This reconstruction project is referred to as “Segment B-1” of the larger Spring Sandusky Interchange (SSI) Project. Under construction since 1993, the Spring Sandusky Interchange Project has three major objectives: 1) Rebuild State Route 315 through downtown to increase the safety, function, and capacity of this major intercity north-south route; 2) Link the two sections of I-670 together, PenWest District creating a continuous east-west highway from I-270 and the airport in the east, through downtown, to Grandview and I-70 in the west; and 3) Create a complete interchange system between SR 315 and I-670, with safe and effective con- nections to the northern and western downtown street system. The SSI project is nearing completion, with State Route 315 reopening in March Harrison West of 2001. Construction continues on the new I-670 connection, though the B-1 Segment must be rebuilt and widened before the new sections of I-670 can be opened to traffic. The Spring Sandusky Interchange Project has encountered numerous delays including funding shortages, the need for improved environ- mental mitigation measures, and concerns about its impact on neighborhoods and historic districts. The primary purpose of this plan is to address concerns about protecting the historic character of the community and maintaining the 315 integrity of the districts through which Segment B-1 passes.

  • Testimony of Cameron Scholvin on Behalf of the Columbus Blue Jackets Before the Ohio Senate Select Committee on Gaming March 17, 2021
    Testimony of Cameron Scholvin on behalf of the Columbus Blue Jackets Before the Ohio Senate Select Committee on Gaming March 17, 2021 Good Afternoon Chairman Schuring and members of the committee. My name is Cameron Scholvin and I am the Chief Operating Officer for the Columbus Blue Jackets. I thank you for the opportunity to provide testimony today on the proposition of legalized sports betting in Ohio. First, I’d like to speak a bit about the Columbus Blue Jackets. The McConnell family had a vision of bringing professional sports to Columbus and were awarded the rights to a National Hockey League franchise in November of 1996. The following May, a referendum for a publicly funded arena failed, but instead of ending the city’s hopes of attracting an NHL team, Mr. McConnell met with leaders at Nationwide and a partnership was formed that resulted in a state- of-the-art arena opening in September 2000 and a transformation of downtown Columbus that continues today. This year’s unprecedented season of no fans and limited fans marks the team’s 20th Anniversary Season. The advent of the team, the arena and the Arena District replaced a condemned state penitentiary and sparked a rebirth of downtown Columbus. As the team goes the Arena District goes. If the District is the heart of the city then the Blue Jackets have most certainly been its heartbeat, bringing an energy, a pride and a passion previously unseen downtown. In fact, multiple markets have since visited Nationwide Arena and the Arena District, and consider it the model for how a professional sports team and venue can energize a city and become an economic engine for development.

  • The Cap at Union Station, Ohio (The Rialto Bridge) - B
    The Cap at Union Station, Ohio (The Rialto Bridge) - B 1 VALUE CAPTURE SUMMARY This case focused on air rights, a form of joint development. 2 BACKGROUND TO THE PROJECT The Cap at Union Station in Columbus, Ohio demonstrates how governments can partner with the private sector to create and share value in highway-related investments. The origin of the Project began in 1995 when the City of Columbus (the City) was looking for a way to reconnect sections of downtown which had been bisected by the construction of interstate 670 (I-670), an inner-belt highway, some twenty years earlier. The construction of the expressway in the late 1970s became a barrier to the development of the area north of I-670, the Short North arts and entertainment district, and community groups opposed the proposed further widening of the expressway claiming it would further damage the urban landscape. For example, with a large convention center located downtown near the Interstate, “restaurateurs south of Interstate 670 said they enjoyed a steady stream of convention traffic, while those north of the highway largely reported no related business.”1 The location of the Project is shown in Figure 1 below. Before the construction of The Cap at Union Station Project, “what separated the haves from the have-nots was a 200-foot-long, chain- link-fence-bordered walkway spanning a busy highway below. It was a pedestrian no-man's land.” 1 https://www.bizjournals.com/columbus/stories/2004/08/30/story1.html The Cap at Union Station, Ohio, EDC-5 Value Capture Case Study October 2018 Figure 1: Location of the Project Short North arts and entertainment district I-670 I-670 Downtown Columbus Source: Google Maps To heal the scar created by the expressway, the obvious solution would be to build a hard cap over the expressway.
