On Saturday, my buddy and I drove up to Columbus to meet another friend and to spend the day exploring the city. This was my fourth trip to Columbus other than driving through and I must say I was quite impressed. Really though, what else would you expect when you are given a tour of Ohio’s capital by no other than Ohio’s #1 tour guide, Chris Cousins. He is the co-founder of Urban Ohio and was one of the first people to give me a tour of Cincinnati back in 2003. In fact my own tour of the Queen City was influenced by that first tour I was given. The two things that stand out most with Columbus are the 50,000 college kids at OSU and development. From what I was told, Columbus doesn’t have a city council system of government. If this is the case, Cincinnati might want to rethink the city council form of government and go back to a strong mayor system. The cycle developments take to go from paper to reality seem to be cut in half. Now I know I am glossing over many other factors but that is one of the things I would like to see changed in the Cincinnati. Overall, I uploaded fourteen photos that can be found at the top of the existing Columbus Gallery.
