Six National Register Historic Districts—one of the largest contiguous districts in the country—form the
heart of MidTown. Tree-lined streets meander among ante-bellum estates, through 1930s and ‘40s
bungalow districts, parks, mid-20th-century ranch neighborhoods, and some of the city’s earliest and
recently revitalized shopping centers. Explore MidTown’s historic district or 18 distinctive neighborhoods.
“I live less than a mile from where I grew up and just over a mile from where I work. MidTown gives me a sense of community and it’s as beautiful an area as there is in Columbus!”
Martha Nitcher Dodson, Hilton Heights
“Simple things like sidewalks, knowing your neighbors, access to schools, neighborhood shops and a grocery store in walking distance, and a lively, beautiful park are reasons why I love the area. It also helps that my work is just minutes from home!”
Bennie Newroth, Weracoba-St. Elmo
“We love the location, the trees and yards, and the older homes. We love being near the park and near downtown. We love our neighbors and the neighborly feel of the MidTown area.”
