Worthington: Plesenton Place: SR-315 at SR-161, 2076
Worthington straddles the northern edge of Columbus in central Ohio, a position that has made it an established residential community within a much larger metropolitan area. The city was founded in 1803 by settlers from Granby, Connecticut, who laid out a New England-style village around a central green. High Street remains Worthington’s civic spine, with older houses, churches, shops and local institutions defining its historic core. West of the center, State Route 315 meets State Route 161 near the wooded Olentangy River corridor, part of the north side’s busy transport network. The combination of a long-established town center, river-side greenery and close ties to Columbus gives Worthington its distinct character.

Few communities in central Ohio have a history as closely tied to a planned settlement by New England pioneers as Worthington. Founded in 1803 by the Scioto Company, it was named for Thomas Worthington, an early Ohio political leader. Its original village green still anchors the historic center, where brick commercial buildings, churches and homes reflect the town’s 19th-century growth. The Olentangy River runs nearby to the west, while High Street connects Worthington with Columbus to the south. The Old Worthington Farmers Market keeps the center active on Saturdays.

Built around the Ohio River corridor and Lake Erie trade routes, Ohio grew into a major state of the American Midwest. Its terrain extends from the Appalachian foothills in the southeast across fertile central plains to Lake Erie’s northern shore, while the Cuyahoga River passes through Cleveland before entering the lake. Columbus, the state capital, stands near the centre of the state. Cincinnati developed along the Ohio River, and Cleveland’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame marks the city’s place in American music. Dayton is closely linked with the Wright brothers and the early history of powered flight. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Ohio.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
