There is an ancient Celtic axiom that says 'Good people drink good beer.' Which is true, then as now. Just look around you in any public barroom and you will quickly see: bad people drink bad beer. Think about it. - Hunter S. Thompson

Was just at the Urban Outfitters yesterday here in Dallas  (at "market" hunting goodies for the shop), and noticed they had a lot of the same gift items we have in our shop downtown.  But our shop is still way cooler  ;D  Glad to hear they are coming to Tulsa though, will be nice to have a place to get some "skinny people" clothes at an affordable price in T-town.

What will they do with the roof top patio?

Let's hope this attracts more retail to Brookside and in particular locally owned retail.

My brother visited Tulsa from Chicago for Tulsa Tough.  He wanted to buy new clothes from a local shop.  I was hard pressed to find one and he left empty handed.  Even the local clothing retailer we visited could only recommend one other local clothing store.

I thought this would probably go into Utica Square with their sister store Anthropologie.  I like seeing the mix of retail and restaurants in Brookside.  Building up the most walkable part, between 33rd and 36th, is important.  The Mecca coffee building and parking lot could support more businesses if redeveloped, as well as the former Blockbuster at 36th if it met the street and extended up to the Starbucks.  Some kind of outdoor restaurant on Crow Creek would be nice, especially once there is a trail linking Brookside to the river.

Brookside is an interesting choice.  Utica Sq. seems like a better retail choice (and would have been a better use of the former Pier One space than a furniture store), but then again Utica Sq. may not really fit their vide  This store could really help drive foot traffic for a Brookside area that seems a little in the doldrums with the ascendance of downtown and Cherry St.

Any links to show this is actually happening?

This is normal for Urban Outfitters.  Many of their stores are in non-shopping center type areas.  They do have one in the Plaza in KC, similar to Utica, but then they have one just off the UT Campus in Austin.

I was told about this last night from someone who knows the construction company doing the work, so it seems the rumor has legs.
