GAHANNA, Ohio (WCMH) A groundbreaking ceremony was held Wednesday for the new Gahanna branch of the Columbus Metropolitan Library.
The branch, which closed June 19, has moved a portion of its collection to a temporary location at 310 Hamilton Road at the Hunter’s Ridge Shopping Center.
The new building is expected to reopen in 2022. The new two-story library will nearly double the size of the former building.
The former Gahanna branch opened in 1991 and was renovated in 1998 and was one of the system’s most heavily used branches.
The construction of the new building is part of phase II of the library system’s plan to rebuild or renovate 14 of its 23 locations. Also part of phase II is a new Karl Road branch, set to open this year, and a renovated Hilltop branch, also set to open this year.

The new two-level Gahanna branch, to be built on the same site, will be much larger than the current branch – from about 21,400 square feet to about 37,500 square feet – and is expected to open in the third of fourth quarter of 2022, said Ben Zenitsky, library spokesman.
Turner Construction Co. is the construction manager at risk, and NBBJ is the architect for the project.
“The Gahanna branch was built in 1991,” Zenitsky said. “Think about how much has changed in those 30 years. This new 21st-century library will serve as a reinvestment in the Gahanna community and the evolving needs of its residents.
After plunging in 2020, central Ohio retail is climbing out of its pandemic hole.
Foot traffic is rising, leasing is up, and new stores are opening throughout the Columbus area, but plenty of clouds remain, especially for enclosed malls and older strip centers in central Ohio, which has more than twice the retail space of the U.S. average.
“A year ago, I definitely thought I was heading into what I thought would be the worst part of my career,” says David Lukes, CEO of SITE Centers, the Beachwood-based firm that owns or co-owns several premium Columbus shopping centers including Lennox Town Center, Polaris Towne Center, Sun Center and Easton Market. “Leasing activity now is the highest I’ve ever seen it. This is the most shocking turnaround I’ve ever seen.”
