About our company
In partnership with our tenants, shopkeepers, startups and restaurateurs, we’ve helped envision and create one of the nation’s most vibrant and eclectic neighborhoods. We’re committed to making sure the Short North remains one of the most desired areas in the Midwest with the help of community organizations that love the neighborhood as much as we do.
EXPERIENCE
We’re driven by the Short North experience. We want every single visitor to feel enriched by the energy of the Arts District.
HISTORY
We’re driven by our history. Preserving the history of the Short North is crucial to us as we renovate, restore and develop each and every one of our properties.
In the early 1980s, The Wood Companies partnered with young homeowners and merchants who wanted to create a better, safer, more vibrant neighborhood unlike any other neighborhood in the Midwest. Together, we demonstrated what passionate people can do when they work together.
ARTS
We’re driven by the arts. We helped bring public art to Columbus and have worked to enhance the local arts scene since our inception. Creativity and innovation inspire us, every day, to this day.
COMMUNITY
We’re driven by this community. Since 1982, nothing’s been more important to us than devoting our time, energy and efforts to supporting and bettering our neighborhood.
