2016 Map of Northeast Columbus

About this map

Port Columbus International Airport dominates the southern edge of this map, representing a significant transportation hub for the metropolitan region in the mid-2010s. The landscape is characterized by the suburban expansion of Columbus, Westerville, and Gahanna, where residential development meets the riparian corridors of Big Walnut Creek and Alum Creek. This 2016 survey captures the area just as modern infrastructure, like the International Gateway, serves the dense commercial and educational sectors including Otterbein Coll and Hondros Coll. Local history is preserved in numerous burial grounds and older settlements like Mifflinville and Parks Mills. The presence of the McKendree Methodist Episcopal Cem and Peace Evangelical Lutheran Cem provides a genealogical link to the area's 19th-century church-based communities, standing in contrast to the nearby City of Columbus Sludge Pond and large-scale utility works.
