Hamilton Rd and 161 – Hamilton Quarter
After 10+ years of round and round with the Army Corps of Engineers regarding wetlands then the 2008 crash, Hamilton Quarter will be the name.
In far northeast Columbus and just east of New Albany on 320 acres of farmland will be Hamilton Quarter with 700,000 square feet of office, one million square feet of nnn, triple net retail, 800 multifamily residences and 130 senior residences. The project is a collaboration of Casto, The Daimler Group and The New Albany Company.
The project includes the long planned rerouting of Hamilton Road. From looking at the site map on the Casto site, I’m not sure what is happening with Dublin Granville Road whether it’s being routed around the project or right through it. As can be seen on the site map, the Columbus infatuation with roundabouts continues.
With most of the residential on development on the north side of 161, I’m not sure how they call this project ‘walkable’ and with most all of the big box retailers already on Hamilton Road just south of this project, and Easton not far away, what they going to do with one million square feet of retail.
The Hamilton Road reroute should be complete by early 2017 and ground breaking late this year. Preliminary lease up will begin soon so If you have interest in retail property for sale or lease in Columbus Ohio please feel free to contact me, Scott Harris, your NNN real estate agent, 614-905-6614
