Downtown Columbus Living at Your Doorstep
Living at Continental Tower places you within one of the most dynamic urban environments in Ohio. Positioned in the center of Downtown Columbus, our community provides immediate access to a wide variety of dining, entertainment, cultural attractions, and walkable streets that define the city’s evolving downtown lifestyle.
Just outside the building, Gay Street has become one of the city’s most active social corridors.

The area’s Designated Outdoor Refreshment Area (DORA) designation allows visitors to enjoy drinks while exploring the surrounding blocks, making it a popular destination for evening gatherings and weekend events.
Arena District
A short walk west brings residents into the Arena District, a destination known for major sporting events and entertainment venues. Nationwide Arena, home of the Columbus Blue Jackets, anchors the neighborhood alongside Huntington Park, where baseball games and outdoor events fill your summer calendar. The district also features a growing mix of restaurants, breweries, and gathering spaces that draw visitors from across the region.
Short North
Arts District
Heading north, the Short North Arts District offers a completely different experience defined by art, culture, and creative energy. High Street is lined with galleries, independent boutiques, and acclaimed dining destinations that make the area one of the most recognizable neighborhoods in Columbus. This district is especially known for its monthly Gallery Hop, where galleries, artists, and street performers transform the area into a celebration of local art and culture.
German Village & Brewery District
South of downtown, German Village and the Brewery District provide a glimpse into Columbus history. Cobblestone streets, preserved brick homes, and historic architecture give the neighborhood a distinctive character, while locally loved bakeries, bookstores, and restaurants create a welcoming community atmosphere. The nearby Brewery District continues the area’s tradition of hospitality with breweries, restaurants, and entertainment venues that have become staples of the Columbus dining scene.
With these vibrant districts surrounding Continental Tower, residents experience a lifestyle defined by culture, entertainment, and walkable city living. Few downtown Columbus apartments for rent offer such immediate access to the neighborhoods that shape the city’s identity.
