Nice pic. 

Obviously, though, there's still a lot of space to be filled.

Might add that the parking lot on the bottom right of that photo is the land that I think BOK is offering to donate for the pop culture museum. 

Also, the parking garage on the far bottom left is being expanded to the south (outside of the photo).  I am hoping that it stays open late so that it can serve as a parking hub for the entire district since much of the Brady District parking is being swallowed up with construction.  Right now, the garage closes at 9:00 p.m.  It is a nice easy walk across the bridge to the Brady District.  Might even consider running a trolly or other type of transportation service from the lot around the district for the lazier of our citizens for whom a 3 block walk is unimaginable.

Careful.  Photos like that ruin the "downtown is dead" paradigm.  Obviously Vision 2025, the new ball park, BOK center, and individual entrepreneurship has been an utter FAILboat in downtown.

TTAC, pick up the white courtesy phone!

Hoss Cutright,

I have been a huge advocate for the Brady/Greenwood neighborhood.

Do you hold it against me that Downtown needs a miracle?

Yes, it's all your fault.

Not shown:
The parking garage in the bottom left has been expanded by 60% or so as well.
The bridge construction. They had two big holes dug on the south side of the tracks today for what I assume will be the south pillars.

TTC, Downtown does not need a miracle.  It needs conscientious planning, effort, and time.  Miracles need not apply.

Pic looking north from the 33rd floor of the BOk Tower.

I labeled what I could in terms of new construction or remodeling.
Hopefully they are all correct.



I think I can see my car.

It has been exciting going to work ever day for the past 6 years and seeing how downtown has changed. Now, if I can just find some affordable housing in downtown...

I really wish that the corridor that heads uo to the ony pistol and cains were more developed.  On the cains side of the street is empty lots and corrigated prefab steel buildings.  On the other side is a giant open field.  When I asked earlier on this thread what was next, that's the space I really had in mind.  Some of those manufacturing (or whatever they really are) such as the complex south of cains or the one on the southwest corner of boston and cameron are going to have to move out eventually.  If I were the king of the world (rich in ponies, of course) I wouldsnatch up that space and build 6-8 story pre-1945 style apartment building.  With the park across the street the land value has to be going up.  It just seems like eventually they will get priced out of their own hood.  Lets hope so.
