University Town Center

And one that can continue the revitalization of Campus Corner/ downtown Norman vs suck energy from it (the UNP “entertainment district”) will 100% have my support.

this is such a bad argument.... things that will come to UNP aren't going to be things that would go to CC or downtown... they are two completely different markets that would attract different businesses. it's not an either/or proposition. i want to support things that will help Downtown and UNP... because that is possible.

The land at UNP where the arena would be located is better for the City of Norman as sales tax-generating retail and/or apartments. Or build what was originally envisioned for this parcel which was an office park focused on advanced manufacturing and aerospace/engineering-related businesses which makes sense being next to an airport. That along with retail/apartments would be a significant revenue generator for Norman, and the off-the-interstate location makes it a perfect spot.

This is what was originally proposed:

this is an idea that has just never come to fruition.... this isn't the land that the Arena was going to be on, this is back just north of the young center... that pond area was built like 10 years ago, and literally nothing has ever happened. the arena would go across 24th to the west.... so i'm not sure what you are saying???? Lets also not forget that this idea for that parcel you are talking about was envisioned over 15 years ago, and it never ever came close to being an actual idea of bringing a company in for it....
