Columbus City Center (known locally as City Center) was a 1,200,000-square-foot (110,000 m2), three-level shopping center in Columbus, Ohio, United States. It was located in the city's downtown, near the Ohio State Capitol, next to the Ohio Theatre, and connected to a Hyatt hotel. The mall had a large parking structure attached that, despite the mall's closure in 2009, is still used extensively by downtown workers.
At the time of its opening, City Center was Central Ohio's largest and most upscale shopping mall. However, a combination of factors would soon strip it of this status.
