It is named after Dr Edward Orton, Sr. who served as Ohio State's first president, OSU Professor of Geology from 1873 to 1899, and Ohio's State Geologist from 1882 until his death in 1899. Orton Hall is built of 40 different Ohio building stones. In the outside walls, these stones are laid in stratigraphic order according to their relative positions in Ohio's bedrock. The only non-indigenous to Ohio stone used is Indiana Limestone to build the front steps. It was chosen because of its high concentration of embedded fossils. The bell tower was dedicated in 1915 and contains 25,000 pounds of bells that can be heard regularly tolling across campus. Encircling the top of the tower are 24 columns with gargoyle-like figures which are restorations of fossil animals. ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/874/f039bfe9-6438-491c-877b-af13e9f1c981.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Ohio State University 15 min walk \- 0.8 miles - ![The 17th Street entrance to.the fairgrounds ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/874/9fbb5b3d-d3fc-4452-a531-0a91586b4323.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Ohio State Fairgrounds 15 min walk \- 0.9 miles - ![A view of the new pedestrian skywalk connecting the convention center to the new downtown Hilton.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/874/a911cf1c-494e-48b4-8263-65008a21c635.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Greater Columbus Convention Center 19 min walk \- 1.0 mile - ![The IGS Energy blimp is a remote control blimp that flies around inside Nationwide Arena during intermissions of Columbus Blue Jackets hockey games.

Very accommodating. The house is as good as the pictures show it to be. They have done a great job of anticipating just about every need. Tons of games, meal prep and eating utensils, tons of leftover condiments, barware, travel cups, clean towels, and even bottled water.There are two full bathrooms, but unfortunately, one is downstairs, disconnected from the bedrooms. The one upstairs connecting the two rooms is a little small for multiple adults, but the 2nd option is key. Rooms are good size w/ plenty of room to move around in. Beds are comfy. Definitely bring a sleep mask as there is both a skylight and a stained glass window that do not have any coverings; main windows have blinds, but even those aren't the best. VERY close to Short North drag on High Street. Great for options to eat, drink, shop, but at night, you can definitely hear the party going on without you. Very walkable to OSU for game day (if you're cheering the other team though, be prepared for a 1.5m hike if non-stop, fairly aggressive harassment). There is a Kroger a short walk/drive for everything; liquor is sold next door at the Kroger liquor store. There are a ton of STRs but there is a still a lot of run-down buildings. Parking in the back is nice. No incidents, but a lot of foot traffic coming off High Street.Overall, good stay. ##### Sarah H.
