Blacklick, Ohio
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Blacklick is a small unincorporated community in southern Jefferson Township, Franklin County, Ohio, United States. The tiny community began as a railroad station and is situated at the intersection of the railroad and High Street (known outside the Village as Reynoldsburg New Albany Rd.) just north of Broad Street in eastern Franklin County. Blacklick Creek gently flows through Blacklick and serves as the community's namesake. The Blacklick Post Office (zip code 43004) used to be within the community but has moved just south of the community on Reynoldsburg-New Albany Road. Blacklick is the site of Jefferson Cemetery, an active cemetery operated by Jefferson Township. Recently, the Township purchased acres of land through a Clean Ohio Conservation Fund grant and will develop the acreage for use by the public. Blacklick Village is destined for redevelopment into a high density, pedestrian friendly planned mixed use district. Interested commercial developers should contact the Township officials for more information.
