Columbus Neighborhoods: Bexley
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 авг 2024
- In the countryside east of Columbus at the turn of the century, two communities joined to form a village that takes its name from a London borough. Learn about life in the largest Jewish neighborhood in central Ohio, a grassroots effort to save the Drexel Theatre, Bexley’s commitment to schools, and explore the natural beauty of the only municipality to be designated an arboretum.
I just have to share this with cyberspace...
I am moving to Ohio this summer, getting our first step into a new life starting in Grove City. Just now, as my wife and I were looking for where I should apply for a job, an opening came up in our search in Bexley, that would be perfect for us. Then, as I was about to take a break and watch a couple of RUclips videos, I saw in my "recommended" list on the home page, THIS video about Bexley!
Divine inspiration? MAYBE!!
I love Bexley, just like so many other beautiful places in Ohio!

I really appreciate that! If for some reason, we end up elsewhere in Ohio, I will most certainly make it a priority to visit Bexley!
welcome to the city!
Miss Barbara, what an amazing teacher and human being!
I'm currently saving up to move up to Ohio next summer to live with my boyfriend and seeing Bexley is just so beautiful. I'm excited to see where he and I end up.
best of luck to you!
I visit the Bexley Public Library often. It is my favorite Independent Public Library in Franklin County, Ohio.
Love Bexley!
I think Bexley was where a steak house called The Top was. A beautiful place with a star studded ceiling and grand piano, and a bar with the world's longest cappuccino machine. This was in the early 1980's. Had to go at least once a month.
Was???......is!!! Its still serving juicy steaks lol
lisa8220 it’s still there but updated inside.
I remember that! My boss used to take me there for a working late-Saturday dinner. Loved it!
My years ago I read Bexley native Bob Greene's Be True to Your School: A Diary of 1964. I still have my copy and love it, I came to know the Bexley of 1964 through his book: Bexley High School, Rubino's, Wentz's Pharmacy, Bexley Public Library, Jeffrey Mansion, Howard Johnson's East (for fried clam night), the Ranch Drive-in, the Toddle House, Lazarus department store. It made me want to visit Bexley. I think anyone who has grown up there--no matter what decade--was very fortunate. What a nice community! Having a pizza at Rubino's is still on my bucket list. I live within a day's drive but don't get around much any more. Maybe some day! Thanks for this little documentary, it was very interesting.
I lived in Columbus for about a decade. In my opinion this is the prettiest neighborhood in Columbus
I would say its 65-75% Jewish
It seems like it but that is a little high!😂 Stats Ive seen say around 25%.
Resident since '98. 💘 it!
@@johndef5075 especially since the rabbi in the video says it's about 20-25%.
North WEST of Cassady Rd is the only area on the north side of Broad St that was predominately wealthy. I grew up on N. Cassingham in a relatively small house, probably not close to 1800 sqft providing for 6 of us.
Great doc! The guy in the Music studio at 22:06 looks like Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
no kidding!
The diversity of the housing makes it unique. They dont build neighborhoods like this anymore. Even the small houses are unique.
Bexley is dope as fuck
Great "mini documentary ". Makes me wish my hometown was more like Bexley.
Its a cool place. And the residents take a lot of pride in it.
Remember well seeing Disney's Fantasia in the mid-60s at the Drexel. :)
I grew up in the 1960's near James Rd and Main St. We always bicycled to the Bexley Library when we needed to do any research for school. Still love public libraries to this day but they are mostly just internet hangouts and places for free video rental. Too bad.
Back in the 70’s I remember being a patrol cross guard on the south side of Columbus Ohio, and after I helped others across the street for school. A car drove by and someone from the back seat threw a kitchen knife at me. It hit me in the belly, but it wasn’t thrown hard enough to do damage. I still stayed a cross guard for that school year.
Hello from original Bexley. Not the same but the spirit seems very similar. I think the two Bexley's should be twinned. That would be amazing.

DId James Madison have businesses there long ago?
who was Hart Schafner and MArx?
I’ve never seen a video in which the word “diversity” was used so frequently. I’m surprised it wasn’t employed to describe the toppings on Rubino’s Pizza.
was a walter burnett in thay clsses there student or so?
Rubinos!
Moles CDX, Cassingham and Main. ❤
This is The Grave (O Grave's Victory). O Death where is your sting? The Sting of Death is Sin. (Evil and Law of Sin, Satan and Epinon is a Reality)

We are completely surrounded on all sides by the hood...
True but I think the area will eventually go through gentrification.
Ridiculous comment. Eastmoor is the hood? Berwick is the hood? If you don't like black people just say that.
@@nathanbaker3156 says the white person who thinks of black people when he hears the word Hood. there's plenty of poor white people in those neighborhoods so don't project your racism on other people. You probably think that black people don't know how to use the internet and don't know how to get driver's license or state IDs either huh!
Mhm sure. Not like I live in South Eastmoor or anything. I’m out here in the ghetto with the people of Berwick, where the average home price is $270,000. And I’m the one who doesn’t get out much ☹️
If you think those are real hoods you havent been to one.
