Nestled along the Scioto River, the district is home to several government offices including Columbus City Hall. Battelle Riverfront Park is also located in the Riverfront District and is a popular spot for festivals. The Scioto Mile, a sprawling multi-use greenway that connects over 145 acres of parkland, runs through Battelle Riverfront Park, allowing for scenic strolls and bike rides. The Riverfront District is nestled beside the River South District, Columbus’ newest up-and-coming neighborhoods. Commercial buildings dominate the Riverfront District, but there are upscale apartments and condos right outside the border of the area. Living in these rentals will place you near some of the city’s best dining, shopping, and entertainment. The Riverfront District is convenient to Huntington Park (home of the Columbus Clippers), Center of Science and Industry, the Columbus Museums of Art, and more. The district is also near several colleges including Franklin University and Columbus College of Art and Design.
