Stadium District (formerly Producers Coop)

[catch22]

Is that building in the lower right of the photo being demo'd ?

I believe that is part of the Lumberyard parcel and not the Coop.

Am I the only one that thinks Coop (ale works) should be planning ahead for their next location and getting a nice spot in this Co-op development? "COOP@COOP" or COOP^2

Before I moved back I was at a local bar and ordered a Co-op (as in cooperative) beer and the waiter very kindly had to tell me it was pronounced like chicken coop. Haha... I was embarrassed but so glad for the correction.

I have done the same thing. Except it wasn't a random waiter who corrected me, it was my girlfriend. And she didn't say it kindly, she laughed at me and made fun of me.

I think it would be cool if they extended the canal through the property, built apartments with first floor retail immediately surrounding it, and filled in the rest of the property with about a thousand rowhouses.

Imagine, if you lived down here, you could actually use the canal as transoprtation and float on a boat from home to lunch and back. Or boat to the tunnel to Santa Fe station,

So will there be height restrictions on the buildings for this site like in Bricktown? Maybe they extend river and put a big riverboat casino right on the water like many other cities have done? Is that even legal in OK.

I do hope to see a bunch of 10-20 story structures built on this site.

[OKC2017]

whatever happens with this site i hope they don't ruin it with more horizontal parking lots.
this area needs to be pedestrian friendly and inviting, but probably that is too much to ask.

I'd love to see modern brick development happen in this area! AHMM is a local architecture firm that has they're main office in London. It'd be nice to see they're work down there!

Sort of reminds me of Oliver Twist for some reason. And that isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Hey sooner arch,

Love those pics.....it reminds me of a place in Houston called city center or pearl district in San Antonio.

Since I recently just left San Antonio I remember pearl brewery best; its not nnecessarily 'fancy'.....they have just captured the true essence of a walkable urban community and they have utterly capitalized on the "outdoor-room concept ". Every shop and restaurant are accessible by foot with benches and trees for shade everywhere. Everywhere you sit you feel tucked away in your own lil oasis whilst enjoying outdoors simultaneously.

City center in Houston was like that to me too....more business oriented the but still tons of shopping....just too darn ritzy for me....had an dinner there with a lady friend and after a modest dinner from us both and a round or beers I spent well over $100 bucks.....nice residential living though but I didn't see 1st floor retail in the apartments/townhomes I saw.....but again city center is so special because there's is just so much to do in that lil pocket which of course is down the street from memorial mall.

I said all this to say, chisholm creek development will be our first mega-level/ urban lifestyle and walkable community in OKC. I like someor what edmond has done to spruce it up and in sure those students at UCO enjoy it. Yeah, bricktown is awesome....but I am still disappointed in our signage and lack of way finding kiosks. Paseo is maybe my favorite district (im an artist myself) but its still comparatively an infant compared to the growth of plaza district......

If we can accomplish with an urban/walkable community and capitalize on an "outdoor room concept" with every single steetcorner and block throughout this entire development then I think we could call this development a success....forget building height....give me sublime architecture, walkable and public transit functionality.

Id love to see something like this. Lots of shops, great landscape and architecture, and most important a walkable community.

[GoldFire]

Thought I'd use the nice weather last night to snap some pics before all of this gets demolished.

[dankrutka]

Man, I would have loved to see a creative indoor/outdoor development with these structures repurposed. Could have been unique.

Those photos make it look like a model train set!

Haha yeah, it is amazing how well that simple effect works.

[stile99]

Yeah, especially the third. I forgot the name of it, but that's an actual type of photography, where the angle makes it look like a miniature set.

Tilt-Shift.

Real tilt-shift lenses are rather expensive (as all lenses tend to be), but software has become surprisingly convincing of late.

like Stanley Marketplace in Stapleton?

Actually it made me think of a different project in Denver, the Denver Rock Drill.

Nice pictures

[David]

There needs to be a better connection to that new sidewalk from the parking lot. Not a single accessibility ramp that I can see along that entire stretch.

[stlokc]

David, you are right. What a design fail! Even if one is able-bodied, they will be traipsing across that grass to get from the parking lot to the sidewalk.

This picture reveals the MASSIVE missed opportunity to connect Bricktown to the Cotton Mill area caused by building the boulevard. It's difficult to properly state how much of a mistake that was. The geniuses in charge didn't learn the lesson of the old I-40.
