As an insider on Tulsa Tough, it’s been hard not to say anything about this for the last 1 1/2 years since I first heard the concept.
From Malcolm McCollam, Executive Director of St. Francis Tulsa Tough:
For the past year - at the request of Tulsa Tough - OU Urban Design grad students have been working quietly and under the radar studying possible opportunities for Tulsa's West River Bank, including Turkey Mountain. The culmination of this work will be on display Wednesday, May 11, at 8th & Cincinnati from 5 - 8 p.m. ...This project lays out a true vision (and I don't use that word lightly) for Tulsa. Gravity trails, BMX tracks, velodrome, green space and more. End your ride at 8th & Cinncinati or be like me and skip one week. This is worth your time.
The unveil takes place at the Cyntergy offices in the old Avanti Building. This would be a very cool community asset for Tulsa.
The best part, IMO, is this would enhance the experience of Turkey Mountain users while also making really good use of the area used for sludge drying beds and compost for years. The largest part of the development would be south of the 71st St. bridge.
