Website picks Columbus for small-town architecture

A website has chosen Columbus as the most architecturally impressive small town in America.

The website, www.windowsandsiding.net, ranked small cities of fewer than 100,000 residents. Each had to have at least one notable architectural attraction and they were chosen and ranked based upon their overall appeal to the average person with an interest in architecture.

Columbus ranked just above Santa Barbara and Palm Springs, California and St. Augustine, Florida.

The website lists its role as educating consumers about their options as they consider new and replacement windows and siding.
