    What is the big structure going up at Riverside Hospital along 315, and when will the project be completed? This week I'm answering our first reader submission for What's Up With That?, our new weekly series answering reader questions about developments, trends and other interesting goings-on in central Ohio. Our question-poser asked to remain anonymous, but their query is one anyone who commutes from north of Columbus (as I do) may have pondered over the last several months.
