Inside Jeffrey Park: The Lifestyle of a True Urban Explorer
What does it really mean to live at Jeffrey Park? For the Urban Explorer—someone who thrives in walkable, vibrant neighborhoods with architectural charm and unmatched access to city culture—it means more than just a place to sleep. It’s about energy. Motion. Meaning.
This is the story of a day in the life at Jeffrey Park, where Homes by Thrive offers two distinctive residences: the Perry Townhome and the Harris Flats. It’s also the story of a neighborhood that invites you to live fully—from the first pour of morning coffee to the last flicker of skyline light.
Morning Rituals in the City
The sun rises over Italian Village, casting a warm glow on the modern façades of Perry Townhomes and Harris Flats. For residents here, the morning doesn’t start with traffic. It starts with intention.
A few steps outside the front door, local cafes hum with energy. Northstar Cafe offers the day’s first quiet moment—a cup of sustainably sourced coffee, a window seat, and time to plan or reflect. For those in the Perry, the rooftop terrace becomes a personal sanctuary. With a yoga mat, a sunrise, and Columbus’s skyline in the distance, the day is already off to a mindful start.
Residents at the Harris Flats, living within an elevator-accessed building, enjoy the ease of a lock-and-leave lifestyle. With their bags packed and work lined up, they step onto wide, tree-lined sidewalks that lead to wherever the day may go.
A Community Designed Around You
Jeffrey Park is more than a development—it’s an ecosystem. Streetscapes are curated, not incidental. Green space is integrated, not ornamental. Walkability isn’t a perk; it’s the baseline.
From thoughtfully placed benches to parks tucked between buildings, the design of Jeffrey Park encourages connection. It’s common to see neighbors greeting one another, dogs leading their owners toward the trails, or small groups gathered for morning jogs.
There’s a rhythm here—set by the neighborhood and lived by those who call it home. And it shows up in every corner, from landscaping to architecture.
The Perry Townhome: Elevated Everyday Living
The Perry Townhome is an expansive three-story residence with the kind of layout that transforms daily routines into elevated rituals. The main floor is open and full of natural light—a space designed for both quiet mornings and lively evenings.
- 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms
- Attached 2-car garage
- Rooftop terraces with downtown views
- Gourmet kitchen with quartz countertops and modern appliances
- Designer lighting, flooring, and high-end finishes
For the Urban Explorer, the Perry represents permanence. It’s for those who want to plant roots in the heart of the city without giving up luxury, privacy, or space.
The Harris Flats: Minimalism Meets Comfort
Tucked into mid-rise buildings with secure entry and elevator access, the Harris Flats offer a different kind of urban luxury.
- 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms
- Modern kitchens and baths with upscale finishes
- Natural light through large, thoughtfully placed windows
- In-unit washer and dryer
- Reserved garage parking
It’s a style of living that supports spontaneity. Whether you’re walking to the Short North, traveling for business, or catching up with friends in the courtyard, the Harris offers a launchpad for life in motion.
Midday Movement, Meetings, and Markets
As the morning transitions into afternoon, Jeffrey Park continues to move.
Residents take walking meetings around the development or hop on bikes to nearby coworking spaces in the Short North. Some grab lunch at Brassica or a quick snack at Fox in the Snow before heading to The Little Grand Market, just a short drive or walk away, for fresh produce, locally crafted goods, or happy hour with friends.
For those with home offices in their Perry Townhome, the environment flexes with the day. A dining table becomes a creative studio. A rooftop becomes a space for midday stretches.
Evenings with Culture, Cocktails, and Connection
As the city lights begin to flicker on, Italian Village comes alive. Jeffrey Park residents find themselves steps away from the best the neighborhood has to offer.
Date night might mean dinner at Agni or cocktails at a nearby bar, followed by a gallery opening or a concert downtown. For some, the best evenings are the simplest—grabbing carryout from a favorite spot and catching up with neighbors on a shared patio or private rooftop.
This blend of casual community and cultural immersion is what makes Jeffrey Park different. It’s not just a place to live. It’s where the city meets you exactly where you are.

- Access to cultural districts like the Short North and Italian Village
- Walkable dining, shopping, and entertainment
