I think it would be so pretty. And don’t forget who made this neighborhood... It’s a tribute to the roots of today’s short north.

Because I am an Atlanta transplant from the "CIty too busy to hate" & I saw what the rainbow crosswalks did for that city. It's a symbol of inclusion and a celebration bof diversity. It's a welcoming beacon. As the capitol of the state it's important to set the bar. Let Short North show publicly the open embrace it has for the GLBT community.

Columbus can be quite a gloomy city sometimes and I think we could all benefit from some color. :-)

As the mom of a transgender teenage son I've become a strong supporter and believe in the LGBTQIA community. Lets show the rest of the country what a great place Columbus is for diversity and acceptance.

LGBTQIA needs to be advertised and this will help

I’m signing for the simple fact that the Short North is a statement and comfort place for the community of Columbus and visitors around Ohio. I recently just moved to Columbus for the simple fact to feel for comfortable about my sexuality. I think painting the cross walks will make our community for homey. With the new attentions to the area this would be a great one!
