EDGE Selected as Part of Design Team for Columbus Commons

Columbus Commons will be a pedestrian-friendly gathering space on the 8.9-acre site of the former City Center mall in Downtown Columbus. Capitol South is leveling the entire mall in order to provide a ‘clean and green’ slate by 2010 that will serve as recreational space and eventually attract private development. EDGE was selected as the landscape architect of record for the design team that includes Moody Nolan, Corna Kokosing, EMH&T, Jezerinac Geers and MS Consultants.

Over time, Columbus Commons will transform into a full-fledged mixed-use neighborhood consisting of multi-story buildings with residential units above street-level retail, office buildings and entertainment venues, as well as a return to a more pedestrian-friendly street grid.
