I wonder if they are going to paint these garages where they are not bricked ?
Overall I'm pleased with the development, but the ugly parking garage looming over everything is a real downer.
I’m disappointed as I expected the rest of the development to exhibit the same attention to detail as the Jones, but that just isn’t the case.
This development is terrible! I just drove past it and there are the ugliest yellow colors on these buildings. The design is not meant for downtown okc, it looks like it belongs in the suburbs. I can’t even explain how terrible this looks. What kind of firm is this?!?
Am I missing something? Are you referring to the Maywood or West Village? I don't recall yellow on any of the buildings in West Village.
Let us remember that DDRC did approve Maywood 1, which has no commercial uses within the entire building. It could be much worse. This will forever baffle me.
This shows the commercial space they have for lease. Looks like the building at Classen & Main will now not have any at all.
I believe they are trying to find a restaurant for the 3,646 SF space in Building D; the 3,400 SF in Building C would be for small office space from what I understand.
The lights across the street will be a nice touch. Hopefully there will be a restaurant in that corner space as the other retail spaces don’t look like they are deep enough.
About the parking garage, from Lackmeyer's chat:
Andy Burnett, part of the development group, says the garage will have metal mesh on the edges and the facade will be covered with signage for retail tenants and a mix of Boston and English ivy.
Yea hopefully that actually happens.
What about the Okla Clutch Supply across the street from The Jones? Any plans in place for it?
Not yet. But just last week I took some photos of them clearing it out:

Why that awful yellow? Gosh this is bad.
I'm going to drive by later on. If I remember correctly from the last time, the light yellow is a layer of insulation. The darker yellow looks to be the finish siding. Maybe I have it backwards.
In my eyes the yellows are dreadful. I mean this design looks like something meant for a suburb, not downtown OKC.
Cool.
