New developments draw attention in today economic climate. (art by Billy Alexander and used with permission)
No matter how much Delaware County has grown, it is still a small-town at heart. You can’t start building a new development – especially in today’s market – and not have questions asked.
“Have you heard what Rockford is building on South Houk?”
I’ve fielded at least a half-dozen calls and it was even part of the conversation on New Year’s Eve. So I did a little digging.
Arthur Place, which is located on South Houk Road at Cobblestone, will be income-restricted senior apartments. The units have one and two bedroom and prices range from $585 to $685 depending on bedrooms, according to Roy Lowenstein, vice president with Buckeye Hope Community Foundation.
Buckeye Hope Community Foundation is overseeing the unit’s building and Rockford is serving as the general contractor.
For more information on the project contact Lowenstein at 614-942-2010 or via e-mail.

So what are the retail plans for the corner of Houk and SR 36?
Also what is going on the the building beside and patio area beside Hoggy’s? Anybody have any info??
Brian,
Thanks for stopping by.
Right now, all I know about the corner of 36/Houk is that a bank is going to be involved. I’ll do some checking.
As to the downtown, the owner of the Hoggy’s building also owns the other corner building (former Bianchis) and is creating a court-yard area. Amattos Wood Fire Pizza is going to use the old Bianchi building as seating. There had been talk of a ice cream shop going in as well but I think that fell by the wayside when Amatto’s made its decision.
