About the Project

The University District Organization has been serving the needs of the community since 1971. While located near The Ohio State University, the organization supports more than just a student population, and their proposal for the Iuka & Waldeck Pocket Park builds upon their belief in creating spaces through collaboration to better connect all that make the district home. The project activates a central green space with amenities like water fountains, benches, and lighting, and beautifies the space with additional landscape and an art totem, representative of the neighborhood history.

614 BEAUTIFUL is possible due to the generous support of the City of Columbus, with program support from the Neighborhood Design Center.
