I talk to a lot of people about topics like urbanism and making neighborhoods social, walkable and sustainable. Usually, when I have these conversations I’m talking about Downtown Columbus and the neighborhoods that surround downtown.
Each day, each week, I am in and out of many homes in Bexley. I love Bexley and I love helping people buy and sell real estate in Bexley. Bexley is my preferred suburb. (There, I said it. Sorry Grandview) It occurred to me today that Bexley, for many folks anyway, is a walkable urban environment. Sure, it might not be so urban its neighbor the the West, Olde Towne East, but Main Street in Bexley has about everything you’d I’d ever want to walk to: Good restaurants, independent retailers, barbers, art galleries, Ice Cream (Graeters with a Jeni’s on the way!), fast and easy restaurants, a major college campus, dry cleaners, a beer and wine store, an independent movie house, my office, places of worship, Hat and Sole — it’s all here. Even great schools.
Wow, Bexley has it going on. And now look, Bicycle parking that also functions as public art. All this and only 3 miles from Broad and High You should move here.

You are so right. Bexley is the best, most walkable Sally-Dick-Jane-and-Spot neighborhood in the Columbus metro area, and that’s before I knew we were getting a Jeni’s.
Great meeting you at COSI. We should schedule a blogger meetup at Jeni’s when it opens.
