New North Market Plans Are Underway... And They Include A Rooftop Patio 🏢🏗

Featured Property Friday 🏠😍

Sponsored by Navigate 614: It's not every day that you come across a property with a unique feature that literally makes my jaw drop. I've never seen anything like what resides in the basement of this classic Worthington Two-Story, and I have to be honest. I'm a little shook. Already falling in love? Get more details and then schedule a showing with Navigate 614 ASAP!

Happy Friday! Chelsea here.

We're wrapping up this week with some exciting updates to the North Market Tower. First of all, it's now going to be known as the North Market Mixed-Use Project instead of North Market Tower. The plans for the updated concept offer some pretty big changes, from losing a handful of stories to adding in a new hotel. It looks incredible, but am I the only one getting a little "Minecraft" vibe from that building? 🏢🏗

Talking Points ❤️

True Crime Explosion 💻

Andy Downing at Columbus Alive

looks at the bizarre true crime ecosystem that's cropped up surrounding the disappearance of Tyler Davis

, who went missing from Easton in February. There are multiple Facebook groups, along with podcasts and message board threads, all operating in a void of tangible information. Downing goes easy on Columbus PD, but it feels obvious that a lack of communication from police in a missing persons case as mysterious as this is going to lead to unhealthy amounts of speculation along with bad behavior.

Difficult To Know What To Make Of This

I have been waiting for Les Wexner's name to start being mentioned in relation to Jeffrey Epstein, knowing the two were extremely close for many years (Epstein

once said

of Wexner “People have said it’s like we have one brain") and it seems the floodgates have opened. The storyline getting the most traction so far seems to surround

a $47 million donation Epstein made to one of Wexner's first non-profit foundations

. Another story concerns a woman

claiming Epstein sexually assaulted her in Wexner's New Albany mansion

. Wexner reportedly severed ties with Epstein more than a decade ago, and so far hasn't commented on recent developments.
