Tomorrow I’ll be moderating a luncheon panel discussion for the Columbus Metropolitan Club (you can buy tickets to attend here) on the topic of Downtown Housing. More specifically, we’ll be discussing the ups and downs that various developers have had, which projects are still in the works, and what the future may hold in the next few years.
The prestigious panel includes:
- Michael DeAscentis of Lifestyle Communities who is currently building the 206-unit apartment and condo project in RiverSouth
- Jeff Edwards of The Edwards Companies, who is constructing Neighborhood Launch, the 300-unit condo development along Gay Street
- Kyle Katz of The Katz Interests, developer of the Buggyworks Residential Lofts in the Arena District
- Kevin Wood of M E Companies, who is the co-founder of the Downtown Residents’ Association of Columbus (DRAC)
I’ve gathered a lot of questions and input from the public, and am really looking forward to trying to make this interesting and fun and educational. Hope to see some of you there! If you can’t make it (I know lunch forums can be tough to make for a lot of people) I’ll be sure to post up the video from the event once it’s online.
