Franklinton is a neighborhood bordered by the Scioto River on the east and north, Greenlawn Avenue on the south, and I-70 on the west. W. Broad Street, or US 40, is one of the country's first roads and is Franklinton's main throughway. It is the neighborhood immediately west of Downtown. It gets its colorful nickname of "The Bottoms" because much of the land lies below the level of the Scioto and Olentangy rivers, and a floodwall is required to contain the rivers and protect the area from devastating floods. Just to the west of Franklinton is a group of smaller neighborhoods commonly referred to as "The Hilltop."
