Right Now Downtown
       The Downtown Columbus Weekly E-Alert: March 24, 2009
Inside43215 What's Your Sign? What's Your Sign?

Tongues have been wagging over the brand new 3-D sign installations downtown.

Giant vodka-soaked lips?  Check.
Big rolling dice?  Roger that.

But it's the old classics that we really love.  Artist Angie Harris (who photographs signs) casts her vote for a particular High Street institution...

Click here to find out which classic downtown sign wins Harris's vote.

Cleve marvels at Grove City's growth.  What went wrong?

If you hadn't noticed construction going on at 4th and Elm Streets, you can't miss the crane that is there now.  Construction on the new 4th and Elm Garage is underway.  The crane will be there for awhile, as construction is set to continue through 2009, with the 682 space garage opening sometime this winter.

Recycling Tip

Recycling Tip

The Columbus Department of Public service is recommending a new yard waste subscription program for weekly residential collection to replace the former contract with Rumpke.  The City is now recommending an allocation of up to one million dollars to Rumpke to allow the company to provide collection services at a relatively low cost to residents.  If you want to avoid any charge, you could always start your own compost pile!
