WELCOME TO FRANKLINTON
Franklinton is an urban neighborhood housing more than 35,000 residents. By the end of 2011 three housing projects in East Franklinton were demolished. Some residents were displaced and some chose to move into homes being rehabbed nearby. East Franklinton is experiencing redevelopment- mainly luxury mixed-use buildings, which is spurring significant gentrification in the neighborhood.
The City of Columbus is focusing on creating a new Short North style neighborhood in Franklinton through developing an urban creative district.

Part of the neighborhood is nicknamed "The Bottoms" after repeated flooding from the Scioto and Olentangy rivers. Now a floodwall built in 2004 guards people's property from again being found "at the Bottom of the water".

HISTORY
Settled in 1797, Franklinton is the first American settlement in Franklin County. Laura and Melissa take you to some of the first buildings as the area was being settled.

EDUCATION
Franklinton is served by Columbus City Schools. Mount Carmel College of Nursing is in the heart of Franklinton. It provides bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees and specialty programs.
