What is the Keystone Corridor? One can imagine, but I really don't know.

[breitee]

The area in Sand Springs between Hwy 97 on the West, Adams Road on the East, Morrow Road on the South and First Street on the North. It was a blighted area that was recently cleared using Vision 2025 money and is slated for redevelopment into a retail and commercial center, but nobody has said what stores will be built there. Any ideas or suggestions?

Here's an aerial of the area with surrounding areas as well.

Second Try!

It is a boulevard of broken dreams.

Behind schedule - Building was originally supposed to begin this spring.

So far:

Acquiring the land cost more than it should have.

Utility relocation has yet to begin.

Developer is dragging his feet.

No potential tenants lined up.

Street improvements haven't even begun the design phase.

I use it often.

I just wish curbside recycling was available.

New signs have gone up in "River City Crossing". What would you like to see built there?

Anybody have any new information on the progress (or lack of) development of this project. Is the city using the same company that is "improving" the Keystone Expressway?

They are having trouble getting parties interested in putting stores/restaurants in there. Rumor has it that the developer is asking outrageous prices.

At least that is what I have been told.
