The latest on "Rambling House South" and City Winery

• Lynch is the former owner of Rambling House bar in Old North.
• The project site is a mile north of Great Southern, across the street from South Drive-In and along the Scioto River, for water recreation access.

What he's saying: "Our hope is to create something that feels authentic to the area — a place where people can spend time outdoors, support local business and experience live music," Lynch says.

Another mile up the road, the Steelton Village mixed-used development keeps expanding, with a new brewery and additional housing planned.

• City Winery announced plans to open there in 2022, but the project is behind schedule.
• Owner Michael Dorf told the Dispatch in 2023 "We are 100% committed to opening."

Meanwhile, new housing developments continue to pop up, including more affordable options.
