Road in Gahanna. These two developments join the clusters of small businesses up and down the several miles of Hamilton Road and crossing Morse Road into the Columbus city line.

 

Shops at Rocky Fork, due to open in mid-2015, has been carved out of 10 properties with construction costs totaling $8.3 million. Its three buildings totaling 26,800 square feet on 3.6 acres will house Arby's, Dunkin Donuts, Tom and Chee, Gigi's Cupcakes, Sports Clips, European Wax Center, and Hibachi Fresh. A TIF, granted last March by the Gahanna City Council, includes expenses for a bike path and sidewalk extension and landscaping improvements.

 

Up Hamilton Road just north of Granville Street, Commons at Clark Hall, finished three years ago at a cost of $6 million, has as tenants Chipotle Mexican Grill, Rusty Bucket, Panera Bread, AT&T, Smashburger, Gahanna Vision Center, Menchie's Frozen Yogurt, and SuperCuts. Its two buildings provide 22,800 square feet of retail space that have been fully leased since day one.

 

Greg Gallas of Courtfield Properties says that Commons at Clark Hall "proved that Gahanna was a trade area. We learned that the market was really good for local business." Studies show that daily traffic along Hamilton Road is around 45,500 vehicles. The population of Gahanna currently is just over 33,000. Population in a five-mile radius is just over 156,000.
