Miss Jackson's/Petty's.....

[Conan71]

Nordstroms Outlet.  Because if you add "Outlet" to anything apparently Tulsans go crazy for it.

Or form coalitions to influence them to move their outlet elsewhere.

H & M to take over the Miss Jackson's place or the Petty's area as well?

rumor coming from a good reputable source?    

Does it make any difference......

Nordstrom Outlet, that's an oxymoron. I went to a couple of them after getting gift cards and wasn't  impressed. Everything was basically 15% off, so it's not a bargin. Just my experience, your mileage may vary.

It's official.  Wonder what will go in.  The Fox 23 article mentions "repurposing" the building since both businesses will be gone. Wonder if that has any deeper meaning or if is just renovating and getting new tenants?

It was only a matter of time after Walt died.

Unpossible! We were told they werent shutting down...

"The reports of our death have been greatly exaggerated," Scott Petty, owner of Petty's Fine Foods, told me in a telephone interview. He said that with a chuckle, but then his voice became serious. "Let me be clear. We have no plans to shut down," he said.

So it is just a coincidence than 4 months later both Petty's and Ms. Jackson's announced closures. Sure, that seems likely... Unless the H&P "knew" these two businesses wouldn't see their leases renewed and the business owners didn't. I suspect something changed that lead both of these businesses to decide it was time to move on within weeks of each other.

H&P owned Miss Jackson's.

H&P owned Miss Jackson's.

Thank you I overlooked that. I wondered how that place stayed open so long. Suppose it was seen as a loss leader?

Going to miss the meat department and the bakery......For sure.....They had some unique items as well.....Service was always great...Shelves stocked and faced and the place was clean.....The only constant in life is change....

THe Petty's need to find a place downtown to reopen. 

[Oil Capital]

Will be interesting to watch what they do with the space.  Too big for H&M.  Too small for Von Maur (or Nordstrom).  UNLESS they relocate Gap/Gap Kids and Ann Taylor.  With that additional space, maybe they could squeeze in a 2-story Von Maur.

The Natural Grocery or whatever at 32nd and Harvard would be perfect...I dont know what keeps that joint in biz....
