Yep.  The hotel has beams going up already.  The metro is very close to being done.  Once the metro is done then the lofts project to the south of hey mambo can start.

In related news they are doing Reno work on the old lettercraft space next to th cigar bar.  I heard it might be a burgerand chicken spot.  No lease signed as yet.

That's too bad....we need more living food without anti biotics and hormones that have been processed to resemble meats.

Auto correct sucks doesn't it? Did you mean "demo work?"

Cool news on the hotel, I'm very glad to hear that it is finally starting construction.

Reguarding the Brady Flats, is it confirmed that they will start shortly after the Metro is done, or is that just you speculating?

jacobi

Yes autocorrect does suck.  I meant reno as in renovation.  But demo is the better description

And yes that was just speculation.  As ar as I've heard the project is on track.

Driving/walking around the Brady District right now is pretty amazing - the amount/scale of construction is unbelievable.

Recent Tulsa World article stated ONG Field is adding several water features (splash pads, etc) to open this spring, so add some more construction to the area.

Great to hear! Hopefully that project will in fact move forward once the Metro is done.

So what's planned that has yet to break ground?  And I mean "planned with a good chance of actually occurring," not "sketched out on the back of a napkin after 6  pints at McNellie's." 

What else do I have to look forward to?

Is there any more info on the Greenarch Project? Last I heard it was supposed to start last spring but as far as I know it still has not broken ground. Is it still on track?

Anyone heard if a local state legislator is going to take the lead and push the OK Pop Museum this session?  With everything happening in the Brady and the recent announcement on Woody Gutherie, this could really be the turning point for creating a fatanstic destination point in Tulsa.  With the OKC Native American Museum still needing significant state funding, Tulsa area legislators could really have some leverage to make a deal to include bond money for the OK Pop.  Unfortunately, Tulsa area legisltators have historically shown a knack for not making good deals with OKC area legislators.

What I've heard around from some high ups is that they are moving ahead with planning for the OK Pops even if the money doesn't come from the legislator. I've seen a survey crew taking picture of the area around me and the BOK lot it is planned for.

The TV tower for Channel 6 has started going up today has well!

Great news on the Pop Museum, and I noticed the tower going up on the way to Stillwater today.
