Tour Checklist
A tour-ready guide for finding off-campus housing near Ohio State, including the questions that decide how a place actually feels to live in.
Furnished Off-Campus Housing
Every home at INTRO comes fully furnished and move-in ready. The bed is made up, the desk is set, the sofa is in place. You bring your clothes and your coffee mug. We handle everything else.
Sustainable Off-Campus Housing
Where you live has a climate cost attached to it long before you turn on a light. Most of that cost is decided by one thing: what the building is made of. Here is how the math works, and how a mass timber community changes it.
Around the Neighborhood
INTRO Columbus sits at the intersection where the Short North Arts District meets the southern edge of The Ohio State University's campus — one of the most walkable, transit-rich corridors in Columbus. You're on High Street, the city's main artery, which means coffee shops, grocery stores, restaurants, and bars are steps away in every direction.
A Letter from the Developer
For decades, student housing has followed the same playbook. Stack the amenities. Print a brochure. Lease it up. Inside the unit? White walls, eight-foot ceilings, builder-grade everything. The place where students actually live has been treated as the afterthought for so long that the people stopped noticing.
