Worthington Ohio real estate

Sharon Heights is a north Columbus neighborhood...   The Toledo Blade called the Columbus neighborhood that President Obama visited yesterday, "Sharon Heights."

"Microphone in hand in town hall-style, the President spoke and took questions from a small crowd sitting at picnic tables in the backyard of architect Joe Weithman, his wife, Rhonda, and their two children in the tree-lined, residential Columbus neighborhood of Sharon Heights. The family benefited on more than one front from the $787 billion economic stimulus package that Mr. Obama pushed through Congress last year almost exclusively with Democratic votes."

E. Kanawha Avenue? ...That is Sharon Heights, Clintonville area... Zillow refers to it as Sharon Heights

Monday all of the local news I heard called the area that the President would visit "Clintonville" .... my office was all concerned on Monday about traffic west of interstate 71 Oakland Park and E. North Broadway ... which is Clintonville. 

Where does Clintonville begin or end? South of the sign in the image above.  The sign welcoming you to Clintonville is at the south end of Worthington

High St. Columbus OH 43214 - Sharon Heights neighborhood.

The sign on the 5200 block of  High St. Columbus Ohio ... I'd call it Clintonville but that would just be wrong... ;- )   Even if  the sign up the road at the south end of Worthington says "Welcome to Clintonville." 

The Pierce Cleaners sign on Hight Street today....

Pierce Cleaners is located at  5205 N. High St. Columbus Ohio 43214... That's Sharon Heights?

Here's a close up of the temporary sign...  today. The   Pierce Cleaners "We're Open" sign up now.  The Pierce Cleaners sign says "Our sign will be back soon!" and also says "The historical sign is out for restoration. " 

The historical and witty Pierce Cleaners sign on High Street...  My photo was taken since the Taco Bell was built on the east side of the road... so it is within the last couple of years.  There is no snow but no leaves either...

I am relieved to see officially that the Pierce Cleaners sign is being repaired.  Not that I doubted the word of a friend who is a Pierce Cleaners customer.  He heard that the historic and witty sign on High Street had been hit by a car and was being restored.   He heard it from a Pierce Cleaners employee.   I believed him.... but I love the temporary sign verifying the sign is recovering.

The Clintonville Beechwold area -  Sharon Heights according to some...

Clintonville area... Zillow refers to it as Sharon Heights

High St. in Clintonville... never too late...

Clintonville Businesses - Don't judge a marquee by it's cover

Clintonville conspiracy theory... Realtors changing borders

Columbus City Parks with aliases Delawanda Park may be shown on maps but Delawanda is an alias...

Google calls it Delawanda Park...

but Delawanda Park is AKA Kenney Park.

"Also known as"  as a kid I read the book 'Helter Skelter' about the Manson Family murders ...  perhaps I skipped a paragraph or two...  I believe it was the pictures of the Manson family members... they had "AKA" names.  I read it as "Ahka" throughout the books.  I think I knew it meant they used other names.  It may  have been my first crime book because "Also known as" never crossed my mind.  I think I was done reading before my older, smarter sister  told me AKA meant "also known as."

'Duh!"

Delawanda Park the City of Columbus Recreation and Parks site calls it  Kenney Park.... Delawanda or Kenney Park is in north Columbus, just south of Worthington, west of Graceland Shopping Center. The park runs along the Olentangy River.

The City of Columbus site says of Kenney Park:

"Also known as Delawanda Park."   Delawanda Park is the alias!

When Columbus nature blogger  Tom Arbour writes about his old stomping grounds in north Columbus he writes about Kenney Park.  I was recently wondering where the border was between Kenney Park and Delawanda Park and somehow became aware Kenney Park is AKA Delawanda Park.

"Ah Ha!"

Tom Arbour wrote Return to Kenney Park earlier this year.  Earlier in June while he was out west in Yellowstone Park, his Ohio Nature blog ran reruns of old posts during Olentangy Week ...

On Ohio Nature Blog Tom Arbour  wrote: 

"Olentangy Week- This week I'll be presenting images from my most recent trip to my old stomping grounds, the Olentangy River at Kenney Park while I'm away at Yellowstone National Park.  "

Arbour's images of life on the Olentany River include 

Odocoileus virginianus  AKA White-tailed Deer

Ardea herodias  AKA Great Blue Heron

Rana catesbeiana  AKA Bullfrog

Someplace on his blog, perhaps during Olentangy Week, Arbour said Kenney Park is on both sides of the Olentangy River.

Other Columbus parks with an alias?   Schiller Park in German Village. It was City Park.  It became Schiller Park, during WWI the name was changed to Washington Park because of anti German sentiments.  

I have to wonder why the City of Columbus Park sometimes known as Delawanda Park has two names... 

Are there other Columbus Parks with aliases?

North Columbus- Clintonville area - Sharon Heights

Delawanda means...

Clintonville area Zillow refers to it as "Sharon Heights"

Creeping Clintonville border blame Columbus real estate agents

The Delawanda
