Franklinton will gain 600 state employees as neighbors and customers this summer when the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections consolidates its Columbus offices.
The state prison system will begin relocating from three office buildings on Freeway Drive by July 1 to the building at 770 W. Broad St. The consolidation also will see the Ohio Adult Parole Authority moved to the neighborhood from Alum Creek Drive south of Bexley.
