The Commons
The Commons is a community gathering place in the heart of downtown Columbus. Building on the strong foundation of the original structure, The Commons will open in April 2011 as a 21st century model for public gatherings and use by the community. The new structure features an expanded indoor playground (opening April 30), complete with a Luckey climber, expanded Miller-Tangeman Lobby featuring Chaos, a Jean Tinguely sculpture created for the original Commons, the Nugent-Custer Performance Hall, The Patio and the Xenia Miller Conference Room (free for not-for-profit organizations to use).
