(New Albany, Ohio) September 19, 2024 – At the September 18th annual New Albany Chamber of Commerce Community Update, New Albany Company President and CEO, Bill Ebbing, announced additional land donations from the company for civic uses. The donations include:
15 Acres adjacent to the recently announced Nationwide Hospital Facility: This additional parcel at the State Route 161 and Johnstown Road interchange will be for community use. When combined with the recent Wexner Family gift of 25 acres to Nationwide Children’s Hospital at this New Albany gateway, a total of 40 acres has been donated in this area.
13 acres in the commercial district along State Route 605: This contributed land is earmarked for future use by the New Albany Plain Local School District.
Additional acreage for the development of a new roundabout at the extension of Market Street and State Route 605: This acreage will support the extension of Market Street, the development of a beautiful water feature with wetland plantings and the addition of a new scenic overlook for public enjoyment that further extends Rose Run Park.
This additional contributed acreage, when combined with the recently announced two acres that was the former site of the Duke and Duchess gas station in the Village Center in support of Rose Run Phase Two, plus the Nationwide Children’s Hospital acreage, brings the total contributed land this year to approximately 60 acres.
