About Central
Clintonville
Central Clintonville, located between North Broadway and Morse Road, is a residential and commercial Columbus neighborhood with tree-lined streets and a walkable main drag. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around North High Street near Lakeview Avenue, where indie cafes, record bins, and small galleries share the sidewalk with longtime diners. Community pillars include Whetstone Park of Roses, Studio 35 Cinema & Drafthouse, and Weiland’s Market. Early-20th-century bungalows and brick Tudors sit behind deep porches and mature canopy. The Olentangy Trail and nearby ravines shape daily routes for walking and cycling. Pocket parks and local patios keep the pace social without feeling loud.
