Better Quality of Life
For many renters, pets bring comfort, routine, and connection. When you can find an apartment community that supports that lifestyle, it’s easier to settle in and enjoy daily life without added stress or restrictions.
Built-In Community and Connection
Pets often spark conversation in shared spaces. In communities where cats and dogs are welcome, neighbors are more likely to connect during walks or even in the hallways.

]]>The post Where is the Short North? appeared first on 985 High Blog.
]]>So, where exactly is the Short North?
The Short North runs along High Street, right between The Ohio State University campus and Downtown Columbus. If you keep heading south from campus, you’ll hit the Short North before you get downtown. It also borders Italian Village and Victorian Village, two other popular neighborhoods that attract everyone from young professionals to growing families to retirees.
A Little History
Before the Short North became the go-to destination it is now, it was an area that, for years, had seen better days.
Starting in the 1980s, local artists began moving in, opening galleries and studios in old storefronts. They brought with them an energy that helped turn things around for the neighborhood. Over time, small businesses like coffee shops, restaurants, and boutiques followed, and the neighborhood slowly transformed into what we know today.
Now, it’s one of the most recognizable parts of Columbus: colorful murals, historic buildings, and a mix of old and new that still feels true to its roots.
Why People Love It
The Short North has a little bit of everything. You can grab brunch at a local spot, check out an art gallery or two, do some shopping, and end the night at one of the bars or rooftop patios – all without traveling more than a few blocks. It’s walkable, busy in a good way, and has an energy that you won’t find anywhere else in the city.
Some of our must-visit spots include:
-
Adamah Ceramics, for its stunning hand-built ceramic pieces.
-
Forno Kitchen and Bar, for its legendary brunch and speakeasy.
-
Lincoln Social Rooftop, for its scenic views of the city.
-
Ladybird, for its unique vintage clothing and accessories.
-
Oddfellows for its dive bar feel and pizza from Mikey's Late Night Slice.
Events like Gallery Hop (a monthly art walk that’s been around for decades) keep the neighborhood connected to its history, while new developments – like our 985 High property – continue to bring fresh life to the area.
985 High | Apartments in Short North
Our 985 High development is a multi-use, eight story building that puts luxury living right in the center of the Short North. Located at the corner of W. 2nd Avenue and High Street, this project was a joint venture between BORROR, White Castle, and the City of Columbus, bringing 11,000 square feet of retail, 12,000 square feet of class A office space, a 210 space public parking garage, and 105 high-end luxury apartments to the center of the Short North.
These apartments offer spacious studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom floor plans with high-end finishes, stainless steel appliances, and hardwood floors. Residents can also enjoy amenities including – but not limited to – a rooftop sundeck, fitness center, on-site maintenance, and covered parking.
Borror has been part of the Short North for years, and we’ve seen firsthand how much the neighborhood has grown. Our communities in the area are simply our way of contributing to a place we genuinely enjoy being a part of.

]]>The post Key Differences Between a Standard Apartment and a Luxury Apartment appeared first on 985 High Blog.
]]>Amenities
Luxury apartments don’t just offer more amenities than standard rentals, they offer better ones. These typically fall into two categories: community amenities and apartment amenities.
Community amenities are what make luxury apartment living feel more like a lifestyle than just a place to live. Think resort-style pools, rooftop lounges, and on-site fitness centers, along with practical perks like elevators, covered parking, and high-speed internet.
Apartment amenities, on the other hand, are designed to add to your everyday comfort and make coming home feel a little more special. From in-unit washer and dryers and smart in-home features to efficient appliances and ample storage, the right amenities can make your space feel both functional and refined.
Architecture, Design and Finishes
Luxury apartments are all about modern style and thoughtful design. Think open, spacious, layouts, large windows that bring plenty of natural light, and high-quality finishes that are both durable and aesthetically pleasing. With Borror Properties, residents can enjoy features like high ceilings, hardwood floors, balconies/patios, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and designer lighting that make the space feel effortlessly sophisticated.
Safety
Both standard and luxury apartments prioritize the safety of their residents, but luxury apartments tend to go above and beyond to ensure a high level of personal safety and peace of mind. Many are located in gated communities or controlled-access buildings, with key fob entry or security clearance required for each floor. It’s common to find additional features like 24-hour surveillance, secure package lockers, and well-lit parking areas. These thoughtful details work together to create a safe, comfortable environment where residents can truly relax.
Location and Accessibility
Luxury apartments are strategically built in the most desirable locations, within close proximity to premium shopping, dining, and entertainment options that cater to a range of lifestyles. For instance, 985 High is conveniently located in the center of the Short North, on the corner of Second Avenue and High Street, just steps from the area's most popular bars, fitness facilities, restaurants, and more. Standard apartments, on the other hand, are more likely to require a greater commute to reach such places.
Service and Maintenance
Luxury properties are kept to the highest standards, offering residents superior maintenance and services compared to standard rentals. Think dedicated on-site maintenance and management that responds quickly so that your home always stays in exceptional condition. Luxury rentals also may offer conveniences you won’t find with standard apartment properties, like packaging receiving, recycling and concierge services.
Not all apartments are created equally. Some stand out with high-end finishes, premium features, and amenities that go the extra mile. Deciding between a luxury apartment and a standard one really comes down to your priorities. If you value upscale design, premiere location, and resort-style living – and your budget allows for it – a luxury apartment could be the ideal choice. But if you’re focused on practicality, affordability, and everyday comfort, a standard apartment can meet your needs. Either way, knowing the differences helps you choose a home that fits your lifestyle and goals.
At Borror, we have more than 60 years of experience designing luxurious properties throughout the Columbus area, including boutique style apartments. We build in the most sought-after locations and emphasize exceptional craftsmanship to deliver elevated living experiences for Columbus residents.
