Stockyards City

[Bill Robertson]

True and bars like that just tend to work better in the middle of an entertainment district. It would be cool in theory to put them in the stockyards but Bricktown would be the ideal spot for something like that based on Nashville, Scottsdale and other cities with similar bars.

Nowhere in OKC could have the draw of "I could be seeing the next huge star" that Music City has . OKC needs to find OKC's unique thing and not try to imitate things that can't be imitated. If we can't find uniqueness then we just don't cut it.

Surprised to learn that Stockyards City is separate from OKC. Would have been nice to renovate the area thru MAPS Capital improvements.

Always had a feel for the area as deeply country & western which makes it unique among the various districts throughout our city.

its not ..

the only part that is NOT in OKC is the actual national stockyards (where the auctions happen and related things)

all of the area considered "stockyards city" is part of OKC (all of Agnew ave and Exchange ave and businesses ..

Just feel we have an opportunity to continue to beautify and strengthen districts like the Asian, Bricktown, Adventure, Boathouse, Automobile Alley, Deep Deuce, Midtown, Paseo Arts and Stockyards City.

I wish it was called The Stockyards. Drop the city.

Weird since they wouldn’t sell part of the property for the jail.

not really if they thought the jail would lower the value of the rest of the property

I agree. I would think as a seller that you want to give a potential buyer the most acreage, freedom and control going forward. Reading the story makes me think the future of the Stockyards in it's current form is cloudy. Selling a chunk of your property to the government could create a situation where that same government makes clear they would like to have more of it, and that makes a business with an uncertain future shift their focus toward the end, rather than the future.

It's up for sale: $27,000,000.
