Todd Boyer Celebrates 15 Years of Service on the Italian Village Commission

June 11, 2021 • aaitken

Todd has served the neighborhood for fifteen years.

Todd lived in Italian Village in 2006 when he began his first term as a commissioner.

This week, we celebrated Todd Boyer’s final design review hearing as a commissioner for the City of Columbus. For the last fifteen years, Todd has volunteered his expertise and passion in service to the Department of Development and Historic Preservation Office. He served as the Vice Chair of the Design Review Commission for the nationally-registered Italian Village neighborhood of the Short North Arts District.

During Todd’s five consecutive terms, more than $750 million in development has transformed the Short North and Italian Village neighborhood into the city’s most recognized and desirable entertainment, arts, and livable community. Neighborhood property values have risen while modern design for contemporary lifestyles has gracefully integrated within the historic fabric of the neighborhood.

Todd led the design of this mixed-use development at 901 N. Fourth Street.

Todd also led WSA’s innovative development at 901 North Fourth Street, sparking the commercial redevelopment of the North Fourth corridor. This project established a precedent for mixed-use development in the Village.

Todd continues to lead our firm in the practice of award-winning redevelopment of historic properties, such as the Seneca, the Jack (WSA’s current office), and 738 Bryden Road. He also continues to contribute his expertise as the Chair of the Design Review Board for the Village of Plain City historic district.

Congratulations, Todd! Thanks for your service and contributions to preservation and redevelopment of our city.

Grand Opening: OSU Frank Stanton Veterinary Clinic

June 2, 2021 • aaitken

This unique facility at The Ohio State University is advancing the future of veterinary medicine and education.

We’re so proud to be part of the story behind this innovative veterinary clinic at The Ohio State University designed by Davis Wince Architecture. The Frank Stanton Veterinary Spectrum of Care Clinic is one of the first university-owned facilities to feature spaces for both primary care services and educational training for veterinary students. With a variety of training rooms and patient care rooms, the clinic will better prepare students for a career in veterinary medicine upon graduation.

Check out a video of the virtual ribbon cutting below, featuring a gaggle of adorable corgis!

The clinic has a long history of partnership with Frank Stanton and the Stanton Foundation. Our graphic design team worked with the College of Veterinary Medicine to develop environmental graphic installations that describe the clinic’s mission and showcase Frank Stanton’s lifelong love for dogs and support for the University. Signage throughout the space was designed using black aluminum with signature scarlet accents for a consistent, elevated aesthetic. Columbus Sign Company installed the graphics.

Check out the 10TV News article on the clinic here.

The second floor features an Ohio State Block-O made from over 1,500 red dog tags.

 

The Frank Stanton story is represented with photos specialty-printed on black aluminum and acoustic panels.

 

Guests are greeted with framed photos of the beloved Stanton family pets.
