Planned for the NW corner of SE 89th & Midwest Boulevard.

I'm pretty sure they currently use a giant lot in the OSUOKC campus for this purpose. I wonder if this will open up new development there.

I believe the existing facility is making way for the new OKC Mental Health Hospital:

This new facility will be much larger.

Looks like a great facility for SCCA & PCA autocross or other performance driving events.

that location makes a lot of sense since the ocpd gun range is just to the west off air depot.

I believe this is the area where Oklahoma City Fire Department's new fire and/or police academies are going to be going. Eventually the facility on Portland is going to be shut down.

Who owns this? County or City?
