Last month the pipeline that runs through the site was replaced. Now it looks like utilities are being moved and there's drilling going on. Maybe for core samples?

I'm sure the parking lot will be magnificent.

There is a nearly empty mall at 41st & Yale that could be converted to an outlet mall quickly and inexpensively.

Will probably sit for a decade or so...then renovate and rejuvenate.

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

If we continue with current political leadership, the 41st and Yale mall could be something truly special in a decade or so...

Good movie and excellent short story; but the idea of a mall becoming a setting for such a thing is creepy.

They already call them "Mall shootings" in the news blurbs.

We'll have to see how the elections continue to play out.

I heard that the final plat and TIF for the outlet mall were approved by the Jenks City Council on Monday. No word on timing, but it seems soon.

It's getting closer!

QuoteThe groundbreaking date is still up in the air, but the mayor says the end date to have it built is firm: 2020.

I guess that can be said until it's still empty fields in 2020

I wonder if they will rethink this location?   :-\

They may be counting on a flood to get the insurance.  Since it's a lot more difficult to start a flood than a fire, no one will suspect anything fishy.
