CASTO, Daimler Group, New Albany Unveil Plans for 320-Acre Mixed-Use Development in Columbus

COLUMBUS — A joint venture comprised of CASTO, The Daimler Group and The New Albany Company has unveiled plans to develop a 320-acre, mixed-use project in Columbus. Hamilton Quarter, which will be located at the State Route 161 and Hamilton Road interchange, will include over 700,000 square feet of office space, 1 million square feet of retail, restaurant, and entertainment space, up to 800 multifamily units and 130 senior living units. The development will also include hospitality components. The development team and the City of Columbus will also develop the S-Curve extension, a new roadway that will connect the Hamilton Road exit directly with Hamilton Road to the west. In addition to the S-Curve extension, part of Dublin Granville Road will be rerouted to allow for a Central Boulevard to be constructed. The Central Boulevard will be a walkable, destination space that will feature Main Street-style restaurants and retail spaces. The first wave of development on Hamilton Quarter is expected to begin in late 2016 or early 2017.
