Columbus, the capital city of Ohio, was founded on the east bank of the Scioto River in 1812. The city was founded as the state's capital beside the town of Franklinton, since incorporated into Columbus. The city's growth was gradual, as early residents dealt with flooding and cholera epidemics, and the city had few direct connections to other cities. This encouraged creation of a feeder canal, and later, freight and passenger railroads. The city became known for its industry and commercial businesses in the 20th century, though it experienced a lull in development in the late 20th century. In the 21st century, Columbus has been increasingly revitalized due to parks projects, new developments, and efforts to beautify individual neighborhoods.
