GCrites80s is spot on... every bar and restaurant has been going patio crazy in the past two years since the city enacted the smoking ban.
Personally I like the permanent patios. The sidewalks are rarely so crowded that you can't easily walk around them. Columbus needs more people out on the streets and sidewalk. It makes for a more vibrant city, not to mention safer streets to walk on.
It's great to be able to walk down Gay Street and always bump into someone you know hanging out on a patio and stop and chat for a bit.
I heard awhile ago that Latitude 41 also wants to knock out part of their northern wall and extend a patio onto the sidewalk along Gay Street. Not sure if that's still in the works or not.
