Polaris - Outside Fountain and Court

There is still time left to take in the sights and sounds of summer. In Columbus the Polaris Mall is located off Interstate 71 (I-71) North and take the Polaris Parkway exit or Gemini exit. There you will be greeted with an array of fun shops indoors and out with lively restaurants and lavish shopping places and floral/green spaces that are sure to engage everyone through the sunny days of summer.

Center Court _ Fountain / Live show area

The center court fountain area is a great place to cool off. A great place for a picnic for 2 or with a family of 4.  Even a spot to drench your self in the cool water where kids (and big kids) can bring their water-ware and enjoy the choreographed water spouts.

Iron patio chairs and tables are a nice fit for anyone to have a nice time while on the patio. Some days throughout summer, Live bands entertain those who stop and mingle and local restaurant patrons enjoying a great meal too.

COTA - Fuel Efficient Public Transportation

COTA - gone Green!

You’re in for a treat with the new COTA “going green” public transportation buses. Headed to the job or the Columbus Zoo, COTA has a way to get you through central Ohio and will help you save the planet too. In early spring 2010, COTA unveiled its newly fuel efficient buses. COTA (Central Ohio Transit Authority) is doing their part in reducing their carbon footprint by adding features like: “48 percent increase in fuel efficiency, a battery-powered electric motor and diesel-fueled combustion engine, regenerative brakes that repower the motor battery when pressed, an LED lighting system used inside and outside the vehicle and a smoother ride because the electric motors do not require shifting”.

The fabric seating is both comfortable and spacious.  It is best to sit in the seating directly behind the driver or seating facing each other by the front entrance of the bus for optimal seating. However, be mindful that prime seating choices may not be available to you due to the time of day, number of people on a bus and availability of the eco-friendly buses in rotation (there are only six currently).
