About Bryden Road Historic
District
Bryden Road Historic District, located between Downtown Columbus and Franklin Park, is a historic and residential Columbus neighborhood with brick-lined streets and grand Victorian-era homes. The district’s character concentrates along Bryden Road near Parsons Avenue, where porch-lit blocks meet a small-city rhythm of corner storefronts and passing bikes. Architectural details—turrets, stained glass, and deep front porches—set a measured streetscape that rewards slow walks. Franklin Park’s conservatory grounds and gardens add a green counterpoint to the dense housing fabric. Nearby, the Topiary Park’s sculpted landscape and the Kelton House Museum & Garden anchor local culture with a distinctly Columbus sense of place.
