Shinto Shrine
In 2018, the City of Westerville began researching the best way to reconstruct the Shinto Shrine in Westerville and restore the historical structure to its former glory. The City has partnered with Schooley Caldwell Associates to bring the Shrine back to the City.
Three potential site locations are located at the corner of Sunbury and County Line Road, Otterbein Lake and Astronaut Grove Park.
