  • 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.

  • Green Community Plan Acknowledges the Need for Additional Work
    Dear Friends: It was 2005 when I first launched the Get Green Columbus initiative to ensure our city’s active contribution to the resolution of global environmental issues. At the time, “Get Green Columbus” was an appropriate name for the initiative as we were at the beginning stages of our work. After 10 years of constant, dedicated effort, Get Green Columbus no longer appropriately characterizes where we stand today. We have gotten green. We removed low head dams, thus restoring our rivers, including the Olentangy River winding through the OSU campus. We added greenspace downtown, making the improved greenway a primary attraction. We launched the city’s first comprehensive recycling program, which has been widely embraced by our residents. We launched a bikeshare program, CoGo, and the CBUS is circulating throughout downtown. We are piloting Blueprint Columbus, a new approach to eliminating sewer overflows while creating local jobs and strengthening our neighborhoods. This is just a small sample of our successes to date. Sustainability can be visualized along an unending spectrum. Although we have “gotten green,” there will always be more work to do, and I pledge my ongoing commitment to this endeavor. In the following pages you will see the projects, policy changes, and partnerships that make up the next five-year plan for sustainability in Columbus. The problems facing us are severe, and our work to mitigate the effects of climate change must remain an urgent priority. The City of Columbus cannot do this work alone; it will take the entire community. This is why we engaged the community in the creation of this plan.

The process to get to where we are today has been a long and sometimes frustrating process. After a few months of praying and seeking God ’s timing, an energetic group of six members was joined and approved by Session. Our interim pastor began in mid-February of 2011, and we began the study process in September, 2011. The Mission Study Team (MST) was commissioned during worship on September 4. One of the first things we did was to explore what discerning God ’s will was all about, and we were assigned to read – three chapters for each meeting until finished – the insightful book, Who Stole My Church by Glenn McDonald. This book explores the challenges facing the “church ” in the 21 st Century in an easy to read and understand format. Early on, we also developed an interim ministry prayer for the church to use during this process.
