What We Love About Grove City, Ohio
Grove City is a self-made community created from humble pioneer origins. As the 19th century began, the area where Grove City sits today was, simply put, a wilderness filled with oak, beech, maple, walnut, dogwood and other trees. There was not a road or bridge to grace this land when Ohio became a state in 1803, nor were there any in 1815 when Jackson Township was carved from Franklin Township.
Grove City’s founder, William F. Breck, visited the area with an eye for farming. He bought 15.25 acres of the farm owned by Hugh Grant, Jr., son of the first settler in Jackson Township, then added 300 more acres west of Broadway intending to work the land. Breck’s original plan changed when he realized the potential for growth since Harrisburg Turnpike passed through the area to the state capital. Breck envisioned a new village complete with a school, church, stores, blacksmith and carpenter shops. Soon, Breck formed a commission with George Weygandt, William Sibray and Jeremiah Smith and platted the village on the east side of Broadway. By December of 1853, the newly formed (but not yet incorporated) village of Grove City had 50 residents. The town founders named the village for the remaining groves of trees left standing after their initial clearing.
Grove City became an entertainment destination during the 1920s. People came to town not just to be entertained by the racing, but to also view movies at the Kingdom Theatre, to dance at Grant’s Auditorium or to dine in several family restaurants. Musicians could be found all over town and, for a few years, there was an organ factory on West Park Street. By 1930, Grove City boasted of a population of 1,550 people. There were a sufficient number of doctors, dentists and pharmacists to serve the area population. Car and tire dealerships dotted the downtown area, as did gas stations.
The World War II years were busy ones for the community with over 500 area men and women serving in the Armed Forces. A boom in housing began after the war as workers from Ohio and other states sought employment at the General Motors and Westinghouse plants west of Grove City. Many others liked the convenience of driving only six miles to downtown Columbus to work.
