Gahanna is celebrating the rebirth of its original downtown with the formal opening of the city’s multimillion-dollar Creekside project.

The mixed-use development features 100,000 square feet of retail and office space, 71 loft condominiums and an underground parking garage.

Gahanna Development Director Sadicka White said she’s ecstatic over the completion of the project, which also includes public plazas, waterfalls, a lagoon and an outdoor stage.

“It has come from an idea, from a vision, to a reality,” White said. “It’s a new and vibrant experience for Creekside that is just the beginning of our downtown.”

Through Sunday, patrons can take part in a grand-opening celebration featuring live music, paddleboat rides and garden tours, according to CreeksideGahanna.com.

  • The condo prices for that development are utterly outrageous.

  • sundown wrote The parking at Creekside is a big mess. One of the reasons Seekers couldn’t float was that there wasn’t really anywhere to park if you wanted to run in, get a cup-o-joe and a snack, and head back out. Except for the few streetside slots, you really had to park on a sidestreet or under the buildings to stay….

    Went up there with a friend and we easily found a spot. But then we have no problem walking a block or two. Lazy Americans.

    Dioun’s company owns Creekside’s center three buildings, around the fountain area. He is selling the condominiums, called The Lofts at Creekside, and renting the space to retail stores on the ground floors of the buildings.

    Parking in the Creekside garage is now less expensive.

    Gahanna City Council on Monday cut the prices for parking after reviewing the first year of its operations. In Creekside’s inaugural year, the garage brought in nearly $200,000 in revenue.

    Creekside appears to be weaving into the fabric of Gahanna, in both the social and business sense.

    Dave Samuel told fellow Gahanna City Council members Monday night that Creekside was filled with activity over the weekend — from Herb Days to the Concerts at Creekside. The weather didn’t help, he said, “but I’m looking forward to the Jimmy Buffett clone band for next weekend.”

    Gahanna is better known as a comfortable, middle-class bedroom community than a million-dollar, high-style destination. But the Residences of Creekside just might change that.

    The condominiums represent the third phase of the $60 million Creekside development in downtown Gahanna. (Yes, there is a downtown in Gahanna, and it’s a very pleasant one at that.)
