Okay, I commented on the developer, I'd like to comment more on the development itself.

Lower Bricktown has turned out to be a typical suburban development. The movie theater doesn't look much different from Cinemark Tinsletown or Regal Crossroads 16. The two smaller restaurant buildings are low, one story buildings you'd find in a local strip mall, like Quail Springs Marketplace or Westgate Marketplace.
The Bass Pro Shop looks like a suburban style sporting goods store, with a sea of parking out front.

Personally, I think the original proposed pictures looked better. I'll admit the Edwards Theater was too large for a downtown area, but it did look more urban. Also, the restuarant buildings at least had a canal and street level, matching some buildings in North Bricktown.

In all truth though, I was never in favor of a large multiscreen movie theater in Bricktown. Mega multiscreen movie theaters are for the suburbs. If a movie theater was going to be built, I would've rather seen a smaller theater that was very upscale and offered a full dinner with the movie, complete with a full bar.

I also would have much rather seen buildings more like those on the North Canal, warehouse style buildings with multiple floors, filled with restaurants, shops, and loft apartments. Also, a few high rise hotels like those found on the San Antonion Riverwalk would have been nice. Something more dense than the development we have now.

Instead of surface parking, I envisioned parking garages. Obviously if Hogan had the financial backing he claimed, he would have the money to build such garages, and profit from them.

You have to remember, this is the guy that claimed he had the financial backing to "build every square inch of the project and lease it back." Yet, he couldn't even come up with his own financing for Bass Pro!

Anyways, I guess surface parking right on the canal is my main concern. That ugly sea of parking coming right up to the canal just east of Sonic is an eyesore. So is the large lot behind the waterfall. Looks like nothing is changing on the south canal either. A new lot is being built near the canal south of I-40.

Hopefully in due time, as demand for space increases in Bricktown, the shorter buildings willl be replaced with taller buildings. This may take a long long time though.
