The McDannald Homestead was a house in Columbus, Ohio. It was built c. 1850 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. The house was one of the largest and best preserved rural residential buildings in Franklin County. The house was a sanctuary stop on the Underground Railroad. It was demolished by Allstate on September 24, 1993, as the organization had planned to build a commercial office park there. Then-city councilor Michael Coleman expressed that it could have been saved if added to the Columbus Register of Historic Properties, which had just added demolition restrictions that July.The house had two and a half stories, and was built of red brick made on-site. It had thirteen rooms, mostly large, square, and with tall ceilings. The house was largely constructed from materials on the land, including walnut and cherry wood, though the parlor utilized pine transported from Michigan. The architect and builder are both unknown, though it is presumed Randal R. Arnold, a master carpenter who built many houses in the surrounding Blendon Township, also constructed this one.

Constructed in the 1840s, when Central College was a separate community, it has been named a historic site. The parsonage is an aluminum-sided structure, two stories tall with a multi-level gabled roof. Two chimneys sit near the roofline, while both the front and side are divided into three bays with windows. The main entrance, placed near the center of the facade, is trabeated, and sidelights are placed on both sides of the doorway, along with high-style pilasters, an entablature, and a frieze.: 2  These elements combine to make the house an example of the Greek Revival style of architecture. Despite the aluminum siding, the house's core structure is frame.: 2 Timothy Lee platted Central College in 1849, surrounding a Presbyterian college founded seven years earlier, but financial problems saw the college close in 1850; although it was resurrected as a prep school for the College of Wooster, the school again closed and was sold to a group that operated it as a retirement home for the deaf. Lee had owned much land in the vicinity before platting the village; he reduced his holdings in 1841 by donating the land upon which the parsonage sits,: 4  across Sunbury Road from the former college building, and one block north of the Central College Presbyterian Church.: 6  Although it was used as a parsonage for much of the nineteenth century, it has since been sold to private owners, who in 1927 moved the house 100 feet (30 m) to the east and turned it to face westward, toward the road.: 2 In 1980, the Presbyterian Parsonage was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying because of its place in local history and because of its historically significant architecture. It was part of a small multiple property submission of Central College buildings, along with the Central College Presbyterian Church, the old college building, and the Ebenezer Washburn House to the north.

The Gideon Hart House is the oldest home in Westerville, Ohio, United States. Built in 1820, the home is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Located at 636 S. Hempstead Road, it was originally built by Gideon Hart on land awarded to his father for service in the Revolutionary War.Gideon Hart and family moved from Connecticut to Ohio in 1816 to take advantage of the land tract of 380 acres. The original tract went from the current land east as far as the current Hoover Reservoir. Hart was a prominent man who built multiple sawmills (due to fire destruction), orchards, farming and a sugar maple stand. He also served as a Justice of the Peace and was integral in the development of Blendon Township, much of which was subsequently incorporated into Westerville. It is now at the front of the subdivision Woodglen. Gideon Hart died in 1859 and he and other family members are buried in the Blendon Township Cemetery on the corner of Dempsey Road and Hempstead Road in Westerville. The house has seen multiple updates over the years, but much of the original structure and details are still intact. There are still burn marks on the original wood floors, imported tile around each of the three fireplaces (installed 1928), and even bark on the main support beam of the home. Most notably, the home's kitchen, which was added in the 1940s, was completely demolished and rebuilt in 2002–2003. An upstairs bathroom and closet was added to the master bedroom at this time.
