The AIA Guide to Columbus says "despite the loss of some important historical structures over the years, Columbus still offers a rich variety of historical and contemporary architecture." The book proves this point with photos and brief descriptions of the obvious (Statehouse, Ohio Theater) to the not-so-obvious (The Borden Building described as plain and severe, Eddie Rickenbacker's house reported to become a museum).
Broken down by neighborhoods, The AIA Guide to Columbus finds interesting architecture from German Village to Grandview, from downtown to Worthington. Newer suburbs, as you may guess, are generally lacking.
If you're like me and love interesting buildings, and like looking at what is left in Columbus, The AIA Guide to Columbus is a great book. Buy one at pricegrabber.com.
