Boomtown Columbus: Population And Opportunity On The Rise 🏫🚉

Happy Friday! It's Tracie.

Despite being a Columbus native, this article's detailing of the history of the 'Bus expands on a lot of interesting parts of our history that I was unaware of. Personally, I just figured that City Center and those huge green carpeted stairs were placed there by our founding fathers. Can you think of anything more iconic?

Seriously though, this is a great, thorough, read about where our city has been, where we're headed, and what we need to accomplish. *cough* light rail *cough*.

Have you guys been watching "Instant Hotel" on Netflix? A friend recommended it to me and I can't stop watching. It's a hoot. There's a girl who has an airbnb in Bondi Beach, Australia. Her name is Bondi. It's a trip. But, it also piqued my interest in the vacation rentals here in town. Minus any Australian accents.

Ohio ranks fifth in the country for production of craft beer...

With over 300 breweries throughout the state. Profits are hopping, too. Craft beer created a billion dollar economic impact in 2018. It also created an impact on my waistline, but let's not talk about it.

The new Crew ownership group will break ground on the new $230 million Arena District stadium this summer. It's amazing how quickly things can move when one foot isn't out the door.
