The City of Cincinnati has agreed to sell two vacated streets to Al Neyer, Inc. to accommodate the retail portion of the Columbia Square development in Columbia Tusculum.

The sale will include 0.46 acres of Broughton Street and 0.11 acres of Butterfield Alley, which will allow for the planned second phase, a retail center along Columbia Parkway, across from Hoge and McDowell streets.

The City will receive a permanent traffic easement to keep Butterfield Alley accessible from Columbia Parkway.

Phase I, a 50,000-square-foot office building, is currently under construction on the southeast corner of Columbia Parkway and Delta Avenue.

At buildout, Columbia Square will include the office and retail buildings as well as an additional 34,000-square-foot office building on the northwest corner of Columbia and Delta.
