Has anyone other than BailJumper seen the new Underground in person?

I'm curious to see the feedback.

And I have to say again that even if it doesn't quite come off (which I don't think will be the case) I'm glad to see OKC making some bold choices. It shows confidence and that we are starting to take our own direction, rather than just mimmicking other cities and developments.

Please don't make your decisions based on professional photos and cool angles. Those photographers could even make a Pug look good.

Now that was just plain uncalled for... and mean... and hurtful...

I have not seen much of it, but I was in the tunnel between Chase and First National about 6 weeks ago and the lighting was already in. I'm with BDP. I would much rather have something different and even controversial than a drab, whitewashed corridor.

Yes, I've seen it in person during and after construction. I support it and think it's great. Long overdue. If it's not Cotter, I'm not sure who could be the antagonist. He sure didn't support it (to say the least) when it came to a vote for the BID district. And I'm 99% sure it was because of him, we didn't get the grand entrance across from the Skirvin either.

Kim, any word on if that grand entrance could be considered on a public right of way instead of Cotter's Chase Tower.
