8TH & HIGH
COLUMBUS, OH | SITE PLANNING & LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE
8TH and High is one of the latest urban infill residential project nestled in the heart of the vibrant Short North District within downtown Columbus, Ohio. This building combines commercial spaces on the ground floor with residential units above, integrating living and workspaces.
POD Design, recognized for its commitment to urban aesthetics, played a pivotal role in the transformation of the High Street streetscape. The enhancements introduced include amenity courtyards, thoughtfully placed site furnishings, and a revitalized streetscape. The amenity spaces, both at entry points and the rooftop terrace, are designed to foster a sense of community and leisure. Among the highlights are a welcoming entry feature, a well-appointed barbecue area with ample seating, a cozy fire feature, tranquil seating nooks, and sculptures adorning both the ground floor and the rooftop terrace levels.
