We may be raising the first generation of children to live a shorter live span than their parents, in part due to obesity and obesity-related conditions. CapitOL Physical activity is important for good health. Physical activity can prevent or reduce obesity, heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, and some cancers. The US Surgeon General recommends 60 minutes of physical activity for children and 30 minutes for adults each day. The Columbus Art Walks Map is a unique way to get active while seeing great art, architecture and historical sites around Columbus. Walk Safe • Pedestrians (people walking) should walk on sidewalks or walk facing traffic. • Pedestrians should cross the street at traffic signals, crosswalks or at an intersection. • At an intersection with a pedestrian signal, cross the street when the signal shows “WALK” or a symbol of a walking person. Wait to walk if the sign shows or is flashing “DON’T WALK” or a symbol of an open hand. • You are less visible in the dark and when wearing dark clothing, so be extra careful! • The majority of the route is accessible and flat.

  • Gentrification in the Short North: from Run Down to Downtown
    Hansan 1 Gentrification in the Short North: From Run Down to Downtown A Senior Honors Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for graduation with distinction in History in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by John Kent Hansan The Ohio State University June 2005 Project Advisor: Professor Steven Conn, Department of History Hansan 2 I. The Short North: Then and Now On the first Saturday of every month, people from all over central Ohio flock to the Short North for Gallery Hop. This short stretch of High Street, located just north of the central downtown center of Columbus, is packed with restaurants, specialty shops, and art galleries. Music, talk, and laughter fill the air as people wander from site to site, enjoying the vibrancy and life of the area. People slip into the High Street businesses, examine the art and other knick- knacks, and maybe make a purchase or two. On beautiful spring days, downtown employees eat at the restaurants and walk up and down the High Street strip. In the summer, a group of resident oddballs have a parade of insanity through the neighborhood. In the residential neighborhoods of Victorian Village and Italian Village, located on opposite sides of High Street, there are dozens of construction projects, some recently completed, some major renovations in process, and others on the drawing board. The residents are some of the most educated and most tolerant in all of Columbus. Driving around the neighborhood, one can see all sorts of symbols of diversity: rainbow flags, American flags, Ohio State flags, and flags of the University of Michigan.
