Worthington Crossing is located north of downtown of Columbus.
A mega shopping destination nearby
Just south of the nearly 200-store shopping mecca that Is Polaris Fashion Place, the Worthington Crossing neighborhood provides a mix of single-family homes and condos in a desirable location and within one of the best school districts in the Columbus area. “The area has grown so much over the past few years,” says Maya Joshi, a Realtor with Red One Realty. “The main driver of that growth is the mall and the stores around it, and it’s just going to get more attractive in the coming years with Intel moving in.” With two computer chip factories opening in 2025, only a 20-minute drive, Intel is bringing thousands of jobs.
Worthington Crossing is an urban neighborhood in Columbus Ohio.
Development and growth in the last 20 years
Thanks to the opening of Polaris Fashion Place in 2001, plans for businesses and housing followed in this area, which is about 15 miles north of downtown Columbus along Interstate 71. Saks Fifth Avenue and Macy’s are two anchor stores. Now, another potential growth spurt is coming. “You have to look to the future. With the thousands of Intel employees potentially moving to the area, the shopping and the schools will bring them here and access to the interstates,” Joshi says.
