This month's One Bexley Real Talk conversation explores environmental racism & ecological justice around Columbus. Who is negatively impacted and who benefits when city development decisions are made?
April's One Bexley Real Talk community conversation focuses on what environmental racism and ecological justice looks like around Columbus. What communities are targeted when large scale city development projects are planned? Who benefits from these projects? And what are the long term environmental impacts? Hear stories about communities who have been displaced by city development projects, learn about what communities are currently being impacted by commercial development and what that means for our environmental wellness around Columbus, and discuss what actions we can take to ensure a healthy environment for all.
The One Bexley Real Talk series is an ongoing conversation series where we come together to discuss pressing social issues, current events, and challenging topics around identity and humanity with the goal of building community and strengthening connections in and around Bexley.
These conversations are a way to actively engage our community to work toward the One Bexley Goal to “deliberately and comprehensively bolster our community culture to ensure that Bexley is welcoming and provides a sense of belonging for all community members and visitors.”
Library Parking & Entrance Information:
While the library's main entrance is under construction, we remain open. Clear signage will guide visitors to a temporary, fully accessible entrance via a ramp in the southeast alley, leading to the dock entrance.
The library parking lot also remains open, with temporary entry and exit available via Euclaire Avenue only. Parking may be limited, so we encourage you to arrive early and use street parking on Euclaire, Mound, and other nearby streets.

Bexley Public Library was founded in 1924 and first housed in Bexley High School, now Montrose Elementary School. The present building opened in 1929 and was designed by architects O.C. Miller and R.R. Reeves who drew upon French and Italian architecture from the 17th century for the design.
The library is located at 2411 East Main Street, at the intersection of East Main Street and Cassady Avenue. Parking is available in our parking lot on Euclaire Avenue and in front of the library on Main Street. Main Street is a No Parking Tow Zone from 4:00-6:00 p.m. weekdays.
