🐑 This Historic Sheep Farm Is Being Transformed Into A 58-Acre City Park

June 23, 2021

Happy Wednesday! Chelsea here.

I'm a sucker for a good transformation story. The fate of a historic sheep farm on the Northwest side of Columbus has been in limbo for years. But earlier this week, Columbus City Council officially okayed the transformation of the 58-acre parcel into the newest city park. It's still early days, but I feel confident in saying that this is going to be a fantastic addition to Columbus.
