Located in the Uptown district, Historic Long & Front is a seven-story mixed-use project that will feature 37 micro-apartments over 6,400 square feet of street-level retail space. Residential apartments at Long & Front, designed for a minimalist way of living, will feature full-size bathrooms and range in total size from 307 square feet to 735 square feet and in price from $929 to $1,289, making them an affordable living option for the downtown area. Units will be completed in May with pre-leasing set to begin in December. Retailers at Long & Front will enjoy a significant presence on W. Long Street – directly across from the Downtown YMCA – and benefit from the high visibility of area professionals at AEP, Nationwide and the new City of Columbus offices. The project received a $1.3 million historic preservation tax credit in June 2016 along with support from the city’s Housing Works program, an initiative designed to encourage affordable housing close to job centers.
