Columbus building permits — week of May 11, 2026
Three consecutive duplex permits on 26th Avenue signal a coordinated infill push in what looks like a deliberate assemblage play — someone is quietly stacking density on a single block. Polaris Parkway is also seeing simultaneous activity at two addresses, with both mechanical and fire suppression work filed in the same week, suggesting a larger tenant buildout or renovation is underway. Declared values are missing across the board this week, which makes dollar-for-dollar comparisons impossible, but the permit pattern tells its own story.
Top permits this week
Fire suppression permit at 175 Corrina Dr — likely a sprinkler installation tied to a change of use or new construction finishing out.
Mechanical work at the Polaris Pkwy corridor, probably HVAC for a commercial tenant getting ready to open.
New duplex construction at 1541–1543 26th Ave, one of three side-by-side two-family builds filed this week on the same block.
