High Street (Columbus, Ohio)

High Street is a major thoroughfare in Central Ohio, predominantly in Franklin County and Columbus.

Continuing south, the road quickly enters Franklin County and passes through some northerly suburbs in Columbus.

The square is the cultural center of downtown, and includes the Ohio Statehouse, the state capitol building.

These include Highbanks Metro Park, the Pontifical College Josephinum, the Newport Music Hall, the Ohio State University, the university's Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum, the Greater Columbus Convention Center, the Lazarus Building, and the Franklin County Government Center.
