Neighborhood

Schumacher Place offers a rare combination of historic character and everyday convenience in one of Columbus's most walkable south-side neighborhoods. Brick-paved streets and sidewalksset the tone for daily life here, while locally owned restaurants, cafes, and shops make most errands possible on foot. Just south of downtown Columbus, the neighborhood shares a border with the nationally recognized German Village district and puts residents within easy reach of the Short North Arts District to the north.

Apartment communities are spread across Schumacher Place's footprint. Many are singular buildings, rather than garden-style, that carry exposed brick and classic detailing found throughout the area. Newer construction adds modern options without straying far from the neighborhood's tree-shaded, historic feel. Columbus State Community College is about a three-minute drive away, and the Columbus College of Art and Design is less than two miles from the neighborhood's center.
