    Nice shot at OKC women, I guess. :-( BTW. Corpus Christi, TX, El Paso, TX, Dallas, TX, Kansas City, KS, San Antonio, TX, Houston, TX, Lubbock, TX, these are all cities just in the area that OKC is listed as more fit than.

    On what list? And I'm just saying, it will be good for this guy's wife to finally have somewhere to shop..



    Maybe it will be a special Lane Bryant that sells both OU and UT XXL stuff.

    Just about like this picture if not exactly.

    You could be right about the tents but that would obviously be the last part of the construction that would be needed so it might still be added.

    Here's hoping that the tents do get constructed. They definitely will be needed to provide shade and cover from the Oklahoma sun and elements.

    Do you think we can support another outlet?

    The Walk isn’t the only area development Garrett Moore is pursuing. Moore said the company is in early discussions with the Sac and Fox tribe about rebuilding on the site the former Tanger Outlet Mall in Stroud, which was destroyed by a tornado in 1999.
    Moore said the plan involves constructing a new outlet mall as well as a water park and hotel.

    Alright Tulsa! Im all for development, be it Tulsa or OKC as long as Oklahoma in general is improving it's options.

    I believe we could support another outlet. The only competition up there would probably be Kansas City.

    Well it's actually Stroud, not Tulsa specifically. Stroud is near both cities, that's why I was curious if both could be supported?

    Rebuilding and expanding at the former Tanger site in Stroud could be a big economic boost for that area.

    The outlet industry has moved away from the remote shopping destination configuration preferring them to be right near a major market. Most of the remote ones struggle, the Gainseville, Hillsboro and Katy outlets struggle to maintain a decent level of occupancy when they build new ones like the Round Rock Outlets next to Ikea. The San Marcos outlets (a Prime and a Tanger next to each other) was built at the time that they liked to locate between cities but Austin and San Antonio are a bit different int he aspect they have been growing towards each other so rapidly.

    If you're trying to be snide, it's not working. I believe I have made quite a few more posts than you have. Skywest knew I was joking, maybe you couldn't tell. I wasn't able to determine what those symbols at the end of your post meant. If we always only made serious posts this forum would be much too boring.

    and I think you took foodiefan's post too seriously. By the way, think it is a form of the smiley face, going from left to right: unibrow, eyes, pointed nose, smile. But that's just my guess.

    Thanks Larry. . .you got it!!

    So sorry ljbab728. . .no offense intended; I was not attempting to be snide. I was pretty sure you were joking too. . . .if I thought you were serious, I wouldn't have replied at all. . . don't like trolls or baiters. Not sure what you meant about the # of posts, but I wasn't aware there was a threshold to post. . .serious comment or smiley face. Just because I don't have numerous posts doesn't mean I don't read (and think about) a lot of posts. Guess my ill-fated attempt at humor was mis-guided!! Rest assured, I'll not quote you again. . .(can't find the blasted smiley face icons or I'd put one here!!)

    I have to admit, this project has grown on me. This is much more the real deal than Classen Curve and other yuppy developments along Western that most average Oklahomans won't ever shop at. This outlet center will be huge, and will serve a far greater percentage of the population than Classen Curve or anything else along the Nichols Hills stretch, all of which is way inflated in importance IMO.

    CC never was intended that way either. It's a niche project and never claimed elsewise. BOTH are much needed in OKC, the luxury market mores than the general stuff. Most of the common man stuff, people would spend their money elsewhere in OKC on, but g to Dallas for the luxury niche stuff.
