Delaware, Ohio: Home to Liberal-Arts College and Pedestrian Mall

Delaware is close enough to Columbus to make the capital city’s attractions accessible, but the town is just far enough away to have an identity of its own. Ohio Wesleyan University occupies about half of the city’s quaint downtown area, where you can see Greek Revival campus buildings and the picturesque Stuyvesant Hall, which was built in 1930. The other side of downtown holds many of Delaware’s shopping opportunities, including the Delaware Commons pedestrian mall. Used bookstores, a historical cinema, and the iconic Arts Castle—a nonprofit cultural center offering visual- and performing-arts classes as well as exhibits of locally produced work—provide engaging alternatives to big-box retailers.
