Condos and penthouses, downtown Tulsa, midtown

[Lora]

I'm hoping to rent something with parking. I would prefer nice/modern, at least 2 bedrooms. Expecting to pay 1500 to 2000 per month. I am just comming back to the USA on the 14th of July for 10 days and want to look at everything available.

So far I have found Philtower, and University Club. They look rather small(I am just looking online). I have a several friends that live at Central park, and those are deffinately too small!

A penthouse would be great, of course I am willing to pay more for something really fabulous!

If anyone  knows other places to look please let me know

Thanks!

I have a friend who has been leasing one of the Metro Lofts off of 15th, and he's been paying around $1800 a month.  I think his is 2 bed/2bath plus a 2 car garage.  It might have an office, too.  Not sure who you would contact, but I know he's moving out of his soon...I'll see if I can get you some more information.

Thank you tulsa1603!!! []

I will chase that one as soon as I get into Tulsa. I do like cherry street.

Tribune Lofts:
http://www.tribunelofts.com/

They are in the Brady District just across the tracks from Downtown in an area that is really picking up.  The largest unit available atm is 2300sq feet for $2200 a month.  1150 sq ft is $1320 a month.  As I understand it everything is top notch.



On the other side of downtown are the Renaissance Uptown Apartments.  More like standard apartments, but by all accounts very nice.  (couldn't find a web page in a brief search)

The Philtower has apartments available with 1600 sq ft for $2400 a month.  If your budget is $2000, I'd say size is not your limiting factor (ie. you won't probably find nice & modern over 1600 sq. ft. for $1500 a month).  Some of the ones on the 12th - 14th floors have terraces with them.  The 12th floor having private terraces up to 1400 S.q feet... that'd just be cool.  [^]

Seems there is very little in the way of contemporary, urban, living options in Tulsa. Is it not being built here because of lack of demand? Or because major Tulsa developers just dont think about it? The Cherry Street Lofts and such are great, but thats just one type of option. We dont really have one typical, contemporary, mid-rise option for instance. Other cities around us and elsewhere have been building dozens of them for ages now. KC, Denver, Austin, St Louis, Dallas, Ft Worth, etc.


These are your average, everyday loft/condos in most cities. Yet when many people I know come to Tulsa to look for a place to live... they say they cant find anything lol.

I hope that pic isnt an example of "top notch" those cabinets are ratty looking. Whats up with the white trash faucet and refrigerator? The refrigerator doesnt even fit in that spot properly. Hardly a designer kitchen. egads [B)]

Hey, thems some fancy accoutrements for Tulsa lol.

I actually think it looks kinda cool. There are different things that I would have but overall not too shabby. Then again, I'm a young professional... what do I know?

[cannon_fodder]

The picture was just a random grab from their website (not even focused well).  And while I certainly would have done things different (the desk area is just odd), I can attest that the kitchen is nicer than mine, if not top notch.  But I did not realize it was "white trash."  The sink is similar to mine, the counter nicer, I don't have an island nor stone, and there is more space than my humble home.  

Do you need a marble sink basin to avoid being white trash?  I've seen plenty in bathrooms, but most people don't want to worry about staining their stone sink.  But, I guess I'll wear my lack of attention to the sink in a photo as a badge of masculine pride.  []

Don't forget about Utica Place, I think there are some penthouses available there now.  Best location in town for sure!  I'm unsure on the pricing though, perhaps it wasn't mentioned due to being way past the budgets of mere mortals?

I believe Utica Place is 'selling' not 'leasing' the penthouses. Residence prices range from $750,000 to $2.5 million.

Metro Lofts website only shows one 'house' for lease. But then again, TulsaNow member, 'tulsa1603', has a friend that's about to end a lease with Metro Lofts.

You've looked at Philtower online, but they are probably going to be your best bet. You wanted, I'm hoping to rent something with parking. I would prefer nice/modern, at least 2 bedrooms.

You may also consider a Midtown home for lease. There are many available in the areas you mentioned.

Good luck, and welcome back to TULSA!

So this thread turns into the fashion police...

I have almost the same cabinets, backsplash and sink in my home. Ours were all custom made from the finest maple...our travertine backsplash has handcarved leaf inlay...they both look beautiful.

Come-on Artist. Not everybody turns their home into a ancient palace.

Here's some pics of a Mayo apt.. Possibility? Don't know anything else about them.

The 420 Mayo website.

Heh. 420. []
