So the environment of a city is not substantive? Including the style and conditions of buildings? And the ease of which they discarded and abandoned vs restored?
This is at once the problem today with downtown Tulsa and strength of midtown Tulsa.
And it is the weakness of BOTH Bricktown and midtown OKC. See the toss away build quality of the theater, Bass Pro and the Roadhouse. Not to mention the new Marriott and the Ford Center. Bricktown has abandonded the reuse or at least the consistent build quality of the older sections.
I would counter that this is just as substantive and more important that say for instance good roads.
