no, I dont want us to limit ourselves to Omni. They had a chance to build something wonderful and chose purposefully to short sight OKC even when we handed them a significant TIF.

Now, there's...

will be interesting to see if TNT/ESPN continue to ignore OKC's skyline during the games. I know we're not NY or Dallas with a huge skyline, but it'd be nice if they could broadcast current OKC...

I feel its a missed opportunity that OKC hasn't so far embraced its culture. That's the we. Sure the nations are doing what they're doing, but OKC should. Other cities have 'something' about them,...

so glad many agree with me on this. I think we can continue to be/strive to be metropolitan but still have Native American restaurants and culture like no other major city is or can do. Couple that...

surprising that OKC doesn't have much if any Native American food restaurants. I truly wish we can turn the page and finally embrace the Native American heritage we have in Oklahoma instead of being...

someone representing him or his team

This is a no-brainer to me. Keep up with the "Jones's" and raise the tax a little to still be lower than most cities in the region but get a big boost to promote OKC.

The ONLY issue I have is with...

Pete, I believe it was in the OKC Planning meeting where the developer mentioned the FAA status.

I just think once OKC has the stadium and the team back playing, that it would be fast tracked - kind of like a 'darling child' of sports if you will, in the way that OKC is now often mentioned in...

oh, that's a bummer on the theatre. Just imagine if a dinner-style theatre experience was available at OAK. OMG.

As for the retail expansion, I'd imagine AF and all of the other 'mainstream...

As for the FAA, the developer said they were around 71% complete at the time of the OKC planning meeting that approved removing height restrictions for the site.

My question is when city hall...

I'd love to see this move to the REHCO lands, with the three towers moving up to 450' and the Legends Tower going up to 1000'. This is more reasonable to me in terms of location and height...

Me personally, I think NFL should be OKC's third team - after OKC reaches 2 million metro and gets MLS within a few years. That's probably the limit for OKC and major professional sports, esp if the...

Im not so sure about that. OKC was 1.2 million metro when the Thunder came and it had a 'trial run' with the New Orleans Oklahoma City Hornets to get noticed. I think Tulsa becomes viable once they...

I wsa referring to Pete's pics. I totally agree with you re the WSJ; they just want to continue the narrative - photographer/author likely didn't bother coming to OKC.

well said

Nice try on the dog whistle BSky. Nice try.

This is why I said people are 'surprised' when they come to actually visit OKC. The media, even local, seems to portray OKC as smaller than it is nor not having attractions of the largest city in its...

there is not one supertall in Seattle, so how is Seattle deserving Legends Tower (which would be more than twice as tall as our tallest too) - come off of it. We have a supertall proposal, for years,...

the city actually looks to becoming quite dense from those pics, Not even including Boardwalk yet.

arguably the best site in my opinion, if they can't get anything downtown to work/fit.

i said 'litttle to no' parking, or 'integrated' parking. The site on the north shore is slim enough for just the hotel tower(s), so parking would be minimal or underground/integrated into the first...

i dont see anybody here getting histerical if it happens or not. people are just excited about a large scale project hitting OKC's radar. Nothing wrong with that. Believe me, people here would be...

As to the concrete, what's taking them so long? OKC Thunder was going to be in the playoffs, since at least February.

Not sure why wait until April to start preparing the area. ?.

Love the Paycom banner pic. Remember when the arena was expanded, they used KD's pic there.

Nice to see the TEAM recognized and promoted.
