Kings Landing will be nice if they do intend on offering large outdoor seating areas behind the restaurants facing the river, like how they've done it at the East Wharf on Lake Hefner in OKC.  Parking is plentiful in front of the restaurants (and the lots are ALWAYS full on weekends) and then you go into them and the backs are all glass with decks overlooking the lake.  This concept would work well on the river.  

Does the river biking/jogging trail run past this development?  It would be cool if they somehow tied that into everything else so people along the trail could easily access it.

The trail runs through Riverwalk next to the river.

I also hope they use the trail here, I think it runs next to Riverside Prky in front of Outback, so it should come up to the development at least.

Maybe I'm just wierd but I don't think either development is really anything that special .... they are just strip malls decorated kinda fancy, kinda ...



Yes, smith farm is so much nicer, all of Owasso is for that matter.

As for the new construction, the sign says "Peloton Center", so is it a bike shop?



Thats the new Lee's Bike Shop....South Location.....Brookside will remain open as well...

It also ties in with the (primary) east-side trail via the old river bridge.  The east trail goes under both 96th street bridges and around the corner park.  The main trail then turns east and goes underneath riverside (there's a large creek there that goes unnoticed from the road) and continues along the Creek turnpike.   Or, you can continue south along the riverside trail (over the bridge rather than under it).  It peeters out at 101st St.

I wish they would spend money on rebuilding or re-surfacing the RiverSide jogging trail it is in poor shape. They also should extend the jogging trail many more miles south.

Ugh.  I didn't know about the Kum and Go.
All the East-side development blows (hodgepodge & not utilizing the river, & a feline clinic??).  
And what's that new steel building to the north of red-robin & johnny-c's?

I'm supprised that Nordaggio's is going to have a location on both sides of the river (Riverwalk and Kings Point).

I think the bookstore will be a great addition to Riverwalk.



Anyone care to bet Riverwalk goes back to the lender in 4 years?

Why would you think that?

I tried to go and eat at Los Cabos on Sunday at 4:00, and the entire center was packed, there was not a single parking space and cars were parked on the surrounding streets in Jenks and on the grass.

So, I went to Hideaway at 101st in Bixby in the new so called "upscale" center in front of Starworld. I guess the 3 foot tall water fountain and extra wide parking spaces makes it "upscale". The Aldi is nice "upscale" touch, as if Carl's Jr wasn't enough. Now THAT place was dead, maybe three table with people were there in Hideaway and I don't think any of the other stores were even open, if they were they were slower than Hideaway. That place could go back to the lender.

FYI, right by the Riverwalk on Main in Jenks right at the bridge on south side of Main TTCU has just started construction on a new bank branch.

Oh, and good news on the "Peleton Center" bike shop on the Tulsa side of the river, it looks like there will be more than one store there and it is NOT backing to the river, one of the storefronts is facing the river and not the street.

And it looks like King's Landing will be two sided like Riverwalk with parking on the street side and patios and such facing the river.

Could someone please talk Kum and Go out of building a gas station on the south side of the Creek at the river?

And Bank First is building a branch on the east side of Riverside Dr at 101st (where Git n Go was)

The 101st and memorial center is planning gone wrong. The new center is nice compared to everything else around it. Has the new hideaway, Michael V's, Starbase 21, etc. Unfortunately it is facing north on a north-south street and tucked behind carls jr and Taco Bueno. No thought whatsoever. The starworld has a lot of younger patrons (under 30, most of the time under 20) that are happy with carls jr and bueno. Chances are they're not a Michael V's crowd.

Kings Landing, from the original designs, will have very limited river-fronting useage. It is mainly a back alley and trash dumpster location. I saw the Peloton center's main entrance is facing SW. Finally having a business catering specifically to the riverside environment is nice. Bike trails + bike shop. Whodathunkit?

The restaurant will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week, 24 hours a day. It will employ 60 people.

The Full Moon Cafe has been a Tulsa tradition since 1987 at its Cherry Street location.

Is phase II of the Riverwalk Crossing finished? If not, when is the planned opening?

Its not only ,not finished, its not started either.

Jerry Gordon currently doesn't have a loan for phase 2 despite phase 1 being 100% occupied and tenants for phase 2 in place.

No, I smell "the channels", until that is decided everything is correctly on hold.
