    Re: Convention Center

    Here's an idea.... doubt those consultant would come up with a creative solution like this though. I'd use both the Uhaul site and Lumberyard. You could put the expo column free space underground...

    I'll put this question out there... If Clayco has cold feet on doing the residential tower in conjunction with the office tower, why not doing a joint venture with Milhaus for the residential...

    Re: OKC Vs. Tulsa

    This is a valid assessment. Only thing I'll say I don't is the bolded part. Just because something is built higher, doesn't mean it's more dense. Again, density is a measure of population within an...

    Why's that? Because I would prefer a city built to accommodate all modes of transportation instead of just one? Because I don't like freeways that may not be necessary for a city to prosper...

    Re: OKC Vs. Tulsa

    It was never my intention to show how similar they are. What I was showing is that there are other areas that have as dense or denser populations. The built environments are very different. The...
  9. Re: Connecting downtown to Health Sciences Center

    Likely it would be someone who lives in Edmond that needs to go to Moore/Norman or Dallas and it's probably quickest to take this to hook into I-35 south. The best way to gauge how many use this to...

    Wasn't CHK's reorganization to diversify into oil though? Service companies are being hammered at the moment. Some around here have a few months of back log, but once that's gone they'll have to lay...

    Gundy has already stated publicly that he just had bad breaks this year. Apparently all those trick plays, screens, short routes, running to the side is the "same scheme we ran all year"

    This is very true. An old school style of running a business would do this country a world of good.

    Riverview district is made up of 4 distinct historical preservation zoning areas. Refer back to the map map I posted.

    Re: OKC Vs. Tulsa

    Density by definition is “the number of inhabitants, dwellings, or the like, per unit area”

    By that definition, Riverview is denser than Deep Deuce.

    Is the urban design better? That’s a debate...
