WE’RE DRIVEN BY OUR PASSION

In partnership with our tenants, shopkeepers, startups and restaurateurs, we’ve helped envision and create one of the nation’s most vibrant and eclectic neighborhoods. We’re committed to making sure the Short North remains one of the most desired areas in the Midwest with the help of community organizations that love the neighborhood as much as we do.

EXPERIENCE

We’re driven by the Short North experience. We want every single visitor to feel enriched by the energy of the Arts District.

HISTORY

We’re driven by our history. Preserving the history of the Short North is crucial to us as we renovate, restore and develop each and every one of our properties.

ARTS

We’re driven by the arts. We helped bring public art to Columbus and have worked to enhance the local arts scene since our inception. Creativity and innovation inspire us, every day, to this day.

COMMUNITY

We’re driven by this community. Since 1982, nothing’s been more important to us than devoting our time, energy and efforts to supporting and bettering our neighborhood.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

The Wood Companies is for the Short North community over all other motivations—even what’s best for themselves.

—Betsy, Executive Director, The Short North Alliance

Mark Wood has been so much more than a landlord. We wouldn’t be where we are today as a business if we hadn’t rented from him.

—Malika, Owner, Kingmakers

The people at The Wood Companies genuinely care about their clients and want them to be successful.

—Jason, Owner, Homage

There are zero issues with quality. Underground parking was a godsend. Great kitchen. Natural light. Everything was so nice and upgraded.

—Mike, Resident, The Wood Co

The Wood Companies have always exemplified the value that diversity is a strength, an asset. It is that very value that made the Short North the success it is today.

—Phil, Resident
