-The Gravity 2.0 project in Franklinton got its initial approvals from the neighborhood development commission, including approval on the 12-story tower, which has also gotten an updated rendering, seen below.
-Nationwide Children’s Hospital made national news for its ongoing investment in the Near South Side. Read that article at https://www.citylab.com/equity/2018/09/when-a-hospital-plays-housing-developer/569800/
