Tulsa has a lot of projects going on now, and a lot of conversion and infill projects going or coming up very soon now that 2025 is fully underway.
First off, there are four downtown housing projects are part of the Vision2025 plan for downtown, the first three are all in the central business district of downtown. Work is likely to begin on all of these in the summer.

The former Mayo Hotel in downtown will be converted to mostly apartments. 70 for lease unit will be available. Currently the first two floors have been restored and are used for events and as retail space.
Several floors will be developed for the apartments. The 16th and 17th floor will likely be ballroom space and the 18th floor is planned as a restaurant and rooftop bar.
