A single gasp once echoed through the gilded balconies of the Springer Opera House, where secrets and scandals wrote themselves between each velvet seat. Columbus is more than riverfront charm—its Uptown streets hold tangled tales and restless ghosts beneath their genteel facades.

On this self-guided audio tour, wander at your own pace through storied halls, grand houses, and unsuspecting corners. Unlock dramas and whispered histories most travelers never notice.

What political maneuver nearly toppled the Mott House under cover of night? Whose shadowy footprints cross the Garrett-Bullock House floors when the city sleeps? And why do certain lamp posts on Broadway align perfectly with unmarked graves?

Move through the city’s vibrant heart, uncovering layers of lost ambition and intrigue. Each step reveals another secret, transforming ordinary buildings into living chronicles ablaze with energy and discovery.

Dare to listen in and uncover Uptown Columbus as you’ve never imagined before.
