I closed the old thread on this project as it's very long with very little real info. You can still read it here: http://www.okctalk.com/showthread.php?t=24497



This all new as of a few weeks ago:

The Oklahoma City Airport Trust (Trust) is seeking proposals from development firms or a group of firms that have assembled themselves into a master development team to award a single Master Development Agreement and ground lease agreements to a master developer to develop, market and manage a significant portion of approximately 950 acres of land known as Lariat Landing located at Will Rogers World Airport. The primary purpose for this solicitation is to assist the Trust by developing designated land for non-aeronautical purposes to include commercial, industrial, retail and hospitality opportunities. The vision for the Lariat Landing development is to enhance the economic strength and stability of Will Rogers World Airport and the region through sustainable and compatible development and create a sustaining source of revenues for the Trust.

Lariat Landing

The Oklahoma City Department of Airports and the Oklahoma City Airport Trust has designated approximately 1,000 acres at Will Rogers World Airport for multi-use, multi-industry, business development. The development area, located on the east side of the airport property, will complement the airport’s core business of operating a first class transportation facility.

The program provides developers with large, combinable plats of land that work for a variety of businesses and industries. Located southwest of downtown Oklahoma City, the airport provides direct, easy access to three major Interstates – I35, I40 and I44. The airport encompasses Oklahoma City's Foreign Trade Zone, providing cargo logistics and tariff-related advantages for companies who trade internationally.

The program has designated three primary areas of development.

DIRECT AVIATION
Few developments in the United States have such desirable access to runways, taxiways and ramps. Corporate aviation, logistics, air cargo and aviation manufacturing will find these locations perfect for airside and landside needs.

AVIATION SUPPORT/INDIRECT AVIATION
For businesses that do not need direct access to the airfield but complement direct aviation businesses, this area provides easy interstate access and multiple combinable plats of land. Perfect for freight forwarding and warehousing operations, aircraft parts manufacturing plants, engine repair or parts depots.

RETAIL, INDUSTRIAL, OFFICE
With excellent interstate visibility this area is perfect for office campuses, hotels, and retail outlets.

With the new Walmart that just went in and the fact that they seem to be moving full steam ahead on developing around it, I figured that my be the motivation for the airport to get this going before they miss the ship.

Anyone know why they are going to close Portland? Are they starting construction for this now?

Where are they closing Portland?

Where are they closing Portland?

There are signs posted at S 104th and S 89th. I am going to drive down Portland on the way home from work tonight to see if it runs further North, but that is where I saw them yesterday and today.

This is a Public Works repair project that we knew was being planned, but didn't know the schedule for it. Got the 48 hour notification this morning. Work could last until Nov. 25.

Looks like the closure is just from 89th to 104th.

Correct, but the intersections will be open. So the closure is from the south side of 89th, to the north side of 104th.

What is being built on 74th between the old Portland and new Portland? Noticed quite a large land clearing. Not SkyWest.

That is the Taxiway G extension project. It will help us to stay prepared if we have interest for more aviation-related development in Lariat Landing. No other specific aviation-related projects are in development at this time in that area.

Thanks!

Drove by today and noticed a big building going up at Portland and SW 54th street in the development area. Anyone know what it's going to be? Good to see development finally beginning!

It's a FedEx customer service and vehicle maintenance/storage facility.

I have the plans and keep forgetting to post.

It's a 100,000 SF facility for FedEx Express, as opposed to their nearly 300,000 SF project just wrapping up in far north OKC for FedEx Ground.

There will be a small amount of vehicle repair but mainly it's a sorting and distribution hub for the Express service.

Sometimes I wonder if Pete knows before I do... and I work here! FedEx, SkyWest and the extension of Taxiway G, further east toward Portland, are the major things happening right now.

That was another thing, the SkyWest building is coming along pretty good. It's going to be a BIG building.

They are extending the runway across the old Portland near SW 74th in order to provide better air service to businesses in Lariat Landing.

The Amazon facility will be just south of 89th and not be connected to the runway system.

taxiway (instead of runway).

Too bad they are not extending the taxiway infruastructure towards Amazon but I suppose they can/will do so later if AMZ starts air service to OKC. Taxiways are far easier/faster to construct than Runways. ...

since they're extending the taxiway, I assume there is another big announcement forthcoming perhaps. .... a new apron(s) for someone(s) to utilize said new taxiway extension.

I drove by today and the taxiway is complete. I didn't see the taxiway lighting up yet or taxiway markings, but the concrete work is completed. There must be plans to lease ground there for corporate hangers. I haven't heard of any plans to build any other aviation businesses there.

There haven't been any building permits issued for the adjacent property, so it's probably improvements with the hopes of attracting businesses.

These are from a couple months ago. Amazon is in the lower right of the 2nd photo.

For a warehouse or manufacturing facility? Do you have a link?

Honeywell Intelligrated

I was hoping someone on okctalk would know something

9201 is the address for the Amazon warehouse. I don't see any permits for Honeywell, but tons of Amazon related permits at that address. Honeywell is likely installing equipment for Amazon which requires some permits.

OnCue at Lariat

they should have encouraged oncue to build on Meridian by the rental car lot. need a nice clean large gas station when exiting the airport. they are always busy at other airports with people filling up rental cars, people grabbing a drink or a few snacks on the way to the airport or after arriving etc.

regardless glad to finally see some movement in this area after a decade

OnCue is being built on Meridian just north of 40. Another one by the rental facilities would be too close to that one. But, yeah, I'm glad to see some development in the area. Hopefully just the beginning of more commercial and industrial development.

LARIAT LANDING GETTING ATTENTION AS NATIONAL MARKETING BEGINS
https://www.velocityokc.com/blog/development/lariat-landing-getting-attention-as-national-marketing-begins/

It seems like every year or two they put out a similar press release. I think this idea was concocted in 2007 or 8. Glad to see they are committed to it, but just seems to be a snails pace.

I feel like Mark kept wanting to do the marketing work himself... and they finally realized they need an experience firm to make it really happen?

Dang, yeah you are right.

Lariat Landing is planning a ground lease for a medical facility:


Oklahoma Breast Center Real Estate Holdings LLC (Lessee) desires to lease approximately 2.10
acres of land (Leased Premises) in the Lariat Landing area of Will Rogers World Airport for a 20-
year primary lease period and 3 additional 10-year option periods in order to construct facilities
and other infrastructure improvements under a Ground Lease Agreement and Construction
Agreement with the Oklahoma City Airport Trust (Trust). The Leased Premises are located in the
Phase 1 – Retail Development portion of Lariat Landing and will be the first development in the
Phase 1 area. The Lessee has agreed to construct a sewer main, water main extension, and access
roadway off the Leased Premises which will serve as a benefit of the Leased Premises as well as
the development of other parcels of land in the Phase 1 development area of Lariat Landing. In
exchange, the Lessee will receive certain rent credits to offset a portion of their ground rent during
the construction period and primary lease period.

Lessee will also have the rights of first refusal on approximately 10 acres (6 acres to the north of
the Leased Premises and 4 acres to the south of the Leased Premises) for approximately 5 years
on which to lease the additional land to construct additional facilities for similar use and, if
exercised, will be subject to new construction and lease agreements. The terms of the rights of first
refusal are set forth in the Ground Lease Agreement.

That's a bummer. That's an area that could be seeing all kinds of commercial and industrial development. Unfortunately, with the economy the way it is, it might be a while before anything else is developed after OnCue and the breast cancer center are finished.

In this recent aerial, you can see the new OnCue at the bottom of the image and the breast center at the top:

Tsoodle: More Lariat Landing construction underway
COMMENTARY
By: Kenton Tsoodle//Guest Column//May 10, 2023

This is National Economic Development Week and the perfect time to highlight a development at one of Oklahoma City’s key economic drivers. Approximately 1,000 acres of land situated on the east side of Will Rogers World Airport, spanning from SW 59th to SW 104th streets between Portland and I-44, dubbed Lariat Landing, will see new openings this summer. This multi-use, multi-industry development site has been in the works for over a decade and makes strategic use of an otherwise awkward parcel of airport property.

Portland Avenue was realigned in 2015 with infrastructure work to accommodate new development on the previously unused land. A new taxiway connects Lariat Landing with the airport to offer aviation access for cargo and aircraft maintenance, repairs and operations. Owned by the Oklahoma City Airport Trust, the property is ideal for businesses specializing in aviation, industrial and retail.

The trust has designated at least 350 acres of land to aviation, 100 to industrial and 150 to retail purposes.

New tenants will join Amazon’s fulfillment center at Lariat Landing, a major win that the team at The Alliance supported, which has created over 1,500 jobs.

New tenants include OnCue convenience store and Premier Breast Health Institute, which will occupy 26,000 square feet situated near SW 89th Street and Portland Avenue. The institute will bring together specialists focused on breast cancer screening, diagnosis, treatment and research. Both are under construction and expected to be completed in late summer or early fall.

According to the Oklahoma Aeronautics Commissions’ 2016 Aviation and Aerospace Economic Impact Study, Will Rogers World Airport contributes more than $6 billion to the local and state economy annually. Total passenger traffic in 2019 was 4.42 million. Impact has grown, following the terminal expansion and record-breaking increase in passenger traffic since 2021.

Another benefit of operating a business from Lariat Landing is that, like Will Rogers World Airport, Lariat Landing is located in a foreign trade zone that gives companies several advantages including duty fee, state and local inventory tax exemption and reduced merchandise processing fees.

Our team at The Alliance commends the Oklahoma City Airport Trust for its strategic development of Lariat Landing, the thousands of jobs the project will create and the sizable economic impact it will have on our growing city and airport.

Kenton Tsoodle is the president of The Alliance for Economic Development of Oklahoma City.

There is so much land over here with a lot of visibility. I would love to see PSM move their studio to this area so they have plenty of space to operate and expand.

I saw a post about LL and got excited, hoping for a new development lol
