​

Good morning, Union County. After a decade of button-mashing memories, Level One Bar + Arcade is leveling up with new owner John Reemsten at the controls. The Columbus gaming hotspot has undergone a radical makeover with fresh paint and neon signs creating an 80s time warp, while still preserving beloved classics like Donkey Kong. Gamers can join the celebration starting September 20, when the venue's 10th anniversary bash kicks off with giveaways and new game unveilings.

Meanwhile, Dublin's urban transformation continues with the ambitious "Bridge North" development planned north of Bridge Park, while Marysville residents have been handed the controller to their city's future. As part of Ohio's fastest-growing county, city leaders have launched a Community Vision Survey seeking input on balancing expansion with small-town character. Your feedback will directly shape strategic investments in everything from housing to sustainability.
