I've been hearing the Chickasaws have shown interest in opening a large casino / hotel / resort type of property either in NE OKC or on the site of the Producers Co-op (cotton oil mills, recently put on the market for $120 million).

Remember, the Chickasaws bought Remington Park out of bankruptcy in 2009, added gaming machines and lots of other improvements and have completely turned that place around. Also, they strongly opposed a proposal by the Shawnees to build a large casino and resort a couple miles north of Remington Park on I-35.

They also recently purchased the naming rights for the Bricktown Ballpark, pumped a bunch of money into renovating Chickasaw Nations Plaza on the BT canal and have put out a great video promoting Oklahoma City.

And it seems they might want to incorporate a decent-size stadium (for soccer or maybe even expandable for future needs) into their plans.


To redevelop that Producers Co-op site, it's going to take very deep pockets and someone willing to dream/develop big.


Thoughts?
