Cannon Drive Relocation – Phase 2 will rebuild the roadway between John Herrick Drive and Woody Hayes Drive to construct a certified ODNR flood protection levee. Area landscaping, including tree removal along the Olentangy Trail, has begun in order to make way for the levee.
Construction on the largest single facilities project ever undertaken at Ohio State is approximately 40% complete. The building features large windows in patient rooms providing natural light, and a view of the Olentangy River. Standing at 410-feet tall, when complete, the inpatient hospital will be the 10th tallest building in Columbus.
Cannon Drive Relocation – Phase 2 construction will begin in January 2023. The project will rebuild the roadway between John Herrick Drive and Woody Hayes Drive and construct a certified ODNR flood protection levee. Facilities Operations and Development’s Tom Ekegren discusses how the work adds up to 500-year flood protection for the Columbus campus.
The Energy Advancement and Innovation Center (EAIC), along with the Combined Heat and Power Plant (CHP), will contribute to Ohio State's sustainability goals, according to a recent article by The Lantern.
Cannon Drive Relocation – Phase 2 aligns with the Framework plan, and continues the work of Cannon Drive – Phase 1, which created a certified flood levee between King Avenue and John Herrick Drive.
