Fort Hayes, Historic district in Columbus, US

The 70-acre complex includes several military structures, administrative buildings, and educational facilities arranged around a central parade ground in an oak grove setting.

The United States Congress established Fort Hayes as Columbus Arsenal in 1862, later renamed in 1922 to honor former Ohio Governor Rutherford B. Hayes.

The Metropolitan Education Center at Fort Hayes combines arts education, career programs, and academic studies for students from diverse backgrounds across Columbus.

The complex houses multiple educational facilities, including a career center and an arts-focused high school, serving students throughout the Columbus metropolitan area.

The facility transformed from a military arsenal to a recruiting depot, then evolved into an educational center while maintaining its historical architecture.
