Adjacent to Downtown Columbus, the city’s Uptown District is a historic hub featuring the best of bars, restaurants, theatres, and riverfront parks. Situated along the Scioto River, Columbus’s Uptown District is home to Bicentennial Park, known for the Scioto Mile Fountain, an amphitheater, and Milestone 229, a glass-enclosed restaurant overlooking the fountains. Uptown District also features the Cultural Arts Center, the Ohio Statehouse, and the Columbus Commons, a green space offering seasonal events, cafes, gardens, and more.

Aside from the beautiful parks and historic architecture, residents love catching a live performance at both the Ohio Theatre and Palace Theatre, ornate local treasures. The small businesses in this community are thriving, ranging from breweries and bars to local art galleries and eclectic restaurants.
