NELSONVILLE, OHIO — The transformation of the former Nelsonville High School Complex into an affordable housing property is about one-third complete. The $9.6 million redevelopment project undertaken by The Woda Group Inc. saved the historic school from demolition. Located at 189 Fayette St., about 60 miles southeast of Columbus, the complex consists of two adjoining buildings built in 1907 and 1924. The new apartment homes will include 33 one- and two-bedroom units, and feature open concept kitchens, energy-saving appliances and individual heating and cooling. Some apartments will retain original chalkboards and classrooms for closet space. The project is slated for completion this fall.
