University District Housing Project Stalled | Columbus News

A major student housing project in the University District is on hold after city reviewers rejected it for violating zoning rules and historic preservation guidelines. The six-story complex, proposed by Up Campus Properties, would have replaced nine buildings—including some deemed historically significant—but was deemed too tall and lacking in required parking and open space. While city staff suggested approval could be possible if historic elements were preserved and height was reduced along main streets, the developer hasn’t resubmitted plans. With no timeline for reconsideration, the project remains stalled amid growing pressure to balance development with neighborhood character.
