Title: New Hotel in the Brady/Greenwood area
Post by: swake on July 25, 2013, 12:08:26 PM
The Wilkins are finally getting their hotel in the Brady District. They just agreed to buy the TDA lot west of Elgin between Archer and Brady across the street from the stadium. No hotel named yet, but the project will have 4-5 floors with 90-110 hotel rooms with ground level retail and some office space.

Add that to GreenArch and GreenArch's next residential/retail project across the street and the new Hogan office building and the area around the stadium is really about to change.

Are the Archer Flats still on or is that dead?

Wow, great news. It started to feel like momentum had stalled now that the AHHA and Fairfield were complete.

The three lots on Elgin between Archer & Brady all owned by TDA, each about 14k sq ft and all three currently surface parking.  The northern two lots are lumped into one and the southern lot is its own piece.  Anyone know if they are buying all three?

This is kind of normal. Phoenix in it's down town transformation is now into it 20th year, and it goes in waves, 2 to 4 year, then a pause for about a year then the next wave. Scottsdale is going through the same, Glendale is on the upswing and has had a couple of bumps, but hasn't crested yet but they are planning for the next wave.

This is great news!  Love hearing about downtown development.  Hope more comes to downtown.  Anyone know anything about Brady Flats, Hartford Commons, or Urban 8?

No.  That project is on the southside of the tracks.  This project is across the street from the ballpark.

The gravel lot between Archer Market and the ballpark  (possibly an old filling station... I don't recall)

Everyone realizes that this is the exact same parcel on which the TDA broke its contract with the Wilkins nearly 5 years ago, right?  Back when the Stadium Trust (which has done absolutely nothing except build a stadium) came into being and forced everyone out from the immediate stadium area?  I'd love to get the backstory on how this happened.  Didn't TDA settle a lawsuit with them for like $50,000? 

46k I think.

And there was no signed contract

What else do you expect a stadium trust to do?

More development = awesome!!!

Destroying the patio view from the Rusty Crane of ONEOK Field and fireworks = unfortunate

Those parcels have been transferred to the Trust.  GKFF no longer owns them.

Very good news.  I was starting to worry that those lots would never develop.  Hopefully it doesn't do any damage to the Rusty Crane's patio such as poorly placed dumpsters or ac units.  I assume the building just to the north that has been vacant for years is still not spoken for?  Another great location with lots of potential but the building (from the outside at least) looks to be in pretty rough shape.

Tulsa Stadium Trust owns the buildings on Archer from Frankfort to Elgin and on Elgin from Brady to John Hope Franklin.  The building you mention I assume is the building that is partially red sheet metal and was last a bar/music venue?  If so, that is owned by TST.

The site is prime.  I am sure it will attract a tenant.  Not to nitpick, but this site is 100% in Greenwood.  There really is no gray area there.

Great project, looking forward to seeing renderings.

Pfox, any chance there could be a GreenArch Phase II at Elgin & Archer (the old yellow warehouses)?  That would be a cool place for apartments overlooking ONEOK Field.

They've already said that phase II will be right across Greenwood from the current building.

What's the latest on this project?  This is one of the more exciting projects downtown with such a prime location.
