Surprised brick is not higher in the NE with so many row homes that are brick. My mom's row home in Philly is brick, as are all of them in that whole part of town, so I was not as stunned by the brick development here as some were...

Interesting comparison with an attached development in Highland Park (Dallas).

Pulling out of those garages will be challenging!!!
Looks like there is about 1.5 times or slightly more of the length of a car in front of the garage. It’s plenty of room to turn and enter straight in. I have similar and never have an issue.
This project is still so bizarre to me. It reminds me of the Bluth house in Arrested Development out in the middle of nowhere. I guess once it's built up around that stretch of land it'll make more sense. There's nothing that appeals to me about this block of housing, but I'm not the target audience. Will be interesting to see it all develop.
Are people going to be allowed to have guests park there? There is NO room in that little driveway thing!
The farthest spot over by the stairs will be. All the other spots you can swing out without having to driver forward than reverse again. I guess you will either have to back in or back out all the way to the other side of the driveway. Wouldn't surprise me if that spot ends up not actually being used for a vehicle. "This unit comes with free storage!"
A few things relevant to recent posts in this thread:
- There will be 3 buildings built here; this is just the first one. I myself had a bit of fun upthread questioning the aesthetics, but if you are commenting negatively about the way it looks displaced from the surroundings you should probably at least wait for the others to be completed before being certain.
- This center building is the only one with garages in the front. The other two have them in back. In the case of this building the parking area will be gated, and it almost has the appearance of being below grade.
If you want to look more closely at drawings, refer to Pete’s post here:
Yeah I remember seeing these a while back. It still looks weird to me. But, like I said, I'm not the target audience for these. They'll certainly have no problem selling them.
I am still looking forward to seeing how that whole area takes shape, though.
They sold well enough they are already starting the 2nd phase.
I'm sure they'll look very nice once finished and fully landscaped.
When they finish all 3 phases it's really going to make this area feel sooooooo different - may even have a bigger impact than everything happening between Grand and Western.
We frequently choose Saturn Grill, Zoes (now Cava), and Flower Child to dine outbecause they have lots of healthy options that our 2.5 year old likes, so we're driving to and from this area a lot and it is impressive how many people are constantly running and walking in the early evening in this area. I feel like the biggest tragedy of the Canton fire is that the best apartments in all of OKC to live at without owning a car got put on hold for several years - which likely makes these $1M+ homes the new best place to live without a car (lol as if).
Seems like people here have a hard time adjusting to other than the usual architecture. Once complete, it’s will have a very positive impact on the area and will be visually interesting. No it isn’t brick ranch, or faux stucco McMansions, or now popular modern contemporary. It is an upgrade to the area by far.
Recently, a friend from California was visiting and I drove her around a bit and we ended up having dinner at Republic in Classen Curve.
She is a reserved person but was really impressed by the area and these units will only add to the appeal.
They are going to end up looking very expensive, which of course they are.
