Old Towne East was one of Columbus's first neighborhoods and contains homes built as early as the 1830's and represents over 50 architectural styles. They were the homes of industry barons, bankers, architects, mayors, and legislators who shaped the city's future.
Old Towne probably has the most beautiful architecture in the city and has been a hotspot for trend setters and renovators over the last 20 years. You can't really find large 1800's mansions, carriage houses, original stained glass, and magnificent woodwork in hardly any other communities besides German and Victorian Village which carry twice the price tag. With prices typically much more competitive than German Village and Victorian Village the neighborhood has found quite an audience. There is still a crime element there and isn't as commercially developed with shops and restaurants as the Short North. The neighborhood streets tend to have pockets of nice areas. If this area interests you I would encourage you to use this map to drive through and take the tour. It is located just West of Bexley and provides a great diverse urban enviroment just East of Downtown. See what this vibrant area has to offer. For more info you can go to http://www.oldetowne.org
