Renting Commercial Office Space in The Short North Arts District

Standing as Columbus's premier urban retail and "creative office" corridor, the Short North maintains a remarkably tight retail occupancy rate of over 96%. While the national office market has softened, the Short North remains a "high-street" destination where retail rents consistently reach $27.00 per square foot, supported by high-density luxury residential units. The neighborhood is increasingly characterized by experience-driven concepts, with new mixed-use deliveries in 2025 and 2026 focusing on boutique hospitality and wellness-oriented retail to capture the affluent young professional demographic.
