The developer expects 20% of the apartments to be occupied by LGBTQ seniors.
A Columbus developer is proposing an eye-catching 10-story apartment and retail building in partnership with the LGBTQ advocacy group Stonewall Columbus in the Short North.
"This allows us to be more thoughtful in how we generate revenue for the organization," he said."Parking revenue on the site wasn’t really generating income at a rate that was really impacting the organization."Porteous said he expects the partnership to include Stonewall access to the building's wellness center and maintenance of a Stonewall garden, in addition to the apartments.
The building, to be called Garden Park in honor of the neighborhood's traditional name, would include 60 one- and two-bedroom apartments, along with 60 indoor parking spaces and a 10,500-square-foot commercial space on High Street that might be at least partially occupied by a juice bar. All apartments would have balconies and range from 606 square feet for the smallest one-bedroom to 1,641 for the largest two-bedroom.
"This is an example of the Short North maturing," he said."This is what makes this project really unique in the Short North, this opportunity to partner with Stonewall to create benefits for their community."
