COLUMBUS, GA-Planners for the Columbus Botanical Garden are about to begin work on the site as well as fundraising efforts for the 28-acre greenspace. The price tag is estimated between $10 million and $15 million, including funds for endowing maintenance and operation. It will be built over a period of several years.

The site is adjacent to the planned 100-acre Columbus Park Crossing regional shopping mall being developed by Atlanta-based Ben Carter Properties. The retail center is the first phase of a larger planned 400-acre mixed-use project north of the city. Columbus is about 120 miles southwest of Atlanta.
