Arena District developer Nationwide Realty Investors Ltd. is moving toward construction of a 1,225-slot parking garage between Nationwide Arena and Neil Avenue, ahead of construction of an office complex to be anchored by Columbia Gas of Ohio Inc.
The Downtown Commission will consider the planned four-level parking garage at its Oct. 25 meeting, according to an application filed Oct. 11. The $12 million project, designed by the Columbus office of Kansas City’s 360 Architecture , will replace 525 surface parking spots on the site of the planned garage and a 280,000-square-foot office building Columbia Gas expects to occupy in 2014.
