Experience Columbus’ African-American and Jazz history along Mt. Vernon Avenue and Long Street, the grand homes of Olde Towne, and the unique history of one of Columbus’ oldest “street car suburbs.” You will find quirky architectural designs, the soul of a neighborhood restored, colorful murals celebrating Columbus’ past, present, and future, and much more!
