Take a walk around one neighborhood northeast of Capital Square online on the neighborhoodlaunch.com . The site is Edwards Companies  (Duffy Homes Inc., Eclipse Real Estate Group and Multicon Construction)  launch of a new seven acre neighborhood in downtown Columbus.  Take a walk through a home online… First watch parking lots disappear and be replaced by a neighborhood with green space, seven parks.   Pricing will be from $140,000 to $650,000.

According to an article in Columbus Business First by Brian Ball  “Gay St. project teams up styles to become neighborhood” :

 ”The mix of townhouse styles is what you see in Chicago’s Gold Coast and Georgetown (section of Washington, D.C.) or Boston and Philadelphia. That’s what makes it seem more like a neighborhood than a project.” 

The first condos in the neighborhood will be completed in January 2008. 

The developers looked at the history of the area.  The neighborhood will be a mixture of traditional (but not formal) style and contemporary.  Two architect firms are involved,  
 Brian Kent Jones Architects Inc. for the traditional and Lupton Rausch Architects Inc. for the contemporary homes.
