Hayden Falls Park is a two acre pocket park hidden right under the noses of thousands of daily commuters. There is not much signage and only a few parking spots located on the western shore of the Scioto River near the Griggs Reservoir bridge. A set of steps leading down to a boardwalk and an overlook were constructed in 2006. 

In the winter, the fall freezes and creates a dazzling 35ft ice curtain formation with tiny trickles heard running behind the shale walls. 

In the spring, after the snow melt or a heavy downpour, the water roars over the falls and drowns out the urban noise pollution and it's easy to forget that you are just feet from 45mph thoroughfare. 

In the summer, the water slows and the sound changes to that of a gentle shower. The rocky walls of the gorge the encompass the falls are exposed and ferns find a way to take hold.

This arch is all that remains of Columbus Grand Union Station, the city's third and final train station. 

Built in 1897 and designed by Daniel H. Burnham and Company of Chicago, the train station was located in the current footprint of the Greater Columbus Convention Center. 

On October 22, 1976, demolition began despite having been listed on the National Register of Historic Places two years earlier. A restraining order federal judge George Smith halted demolition, but it was too late and only one arch of the ornate structure was saved.

In 1999, the arch in its entirety was slowing inched over several blocks to its current location at Dimon McPherson Commons in the Arena District.
