It looks a lot better in person, now that all the buildings have been painted. I liked the concept, and I think the product looks very good, even incomplete.

I'll be down at Deep Deuce Thursday, I'll swing by and take a look. Last time I looked it was pretty early on.

It looks better in person like you said.

My only complaint is access to the "bridges" via sidewalk is connected to the actual patio for this development. And the existing and new planters they have added completely block off walking access. So as it sits now, you either have to walk through the patio of (what will be tables and chairs) or go around through the grass against the Aloft property line. It would be nice if there was a second walk path through the grassy area on the east side of this lot, bordering aloft's property line.

I'm most excited about more office tenants on the Deep Deuce side of 2nd even if it is just a dozen or so. The more mixed use Deep Deuce can get, the better IMO.

Anchor Down is coming together nicely:

Yes, I got a tour of the entire complex last week.

The Anchor Down space has a bar with reclaimed wood from the Plow building.

There are four tenant spaces: Anchor Down, a retail/gallery space on the ground floor and then two office spaces above. Rick McKown is taking one of those spaces.

It's all very, very cool.

[dankrutka]

Going to be a pretty cool space.





You can see that the sidewalk and ramp are about 20 feet apart from each other.

[Pete]

Thanks for those.

They are going to build a more permanent set of stairs at the end of the sidewalk.


Also, I was touring the Holiday Inn Express yesterday and happened to notice this project from Main Street in Bricktown. Really eye-catching and cool.

It looks especially great at night.

I'm curious, how are they going to be able to build permanent stairs over the Union Pacific right of way? I know the rails are currently not in use, but somehow I don't think UP would appreciate someone building on their land across their tracks... As it is, I'm surprised the sidewalk ends as close to the rails as it does right now.

The stairs won't be truly permanent.

Just a better version of what is there now.

Wasnt this suppose to open Mid-May? any clue on how close we are?

Grand opening June 20, with block party.

[Urbanized]

Yeah I saw Anchor Down getting a Sysco delivery today and was going to say no way they're taking food deliveries if they aren't going to be open within next two weeks or so, with training and soft open leading up to it.

I'm going to stalk them hardcore for a soft opening.

Grand opening this weekend:

[AP]

Staircase finished.

[shawnw]

Wow, that's very nice. It sure looks official. Did we actually get permission from the railroad or is this another ask for forgiveness later situation?

[Pete]

I doubt they asked for or received permission.

Looks like it was specifically built to remove in one piece if/when the time comes.

[Anonymous.]

Okay so apparently the block party and grand opening was a 'soft opening'... And they will be officially open on the 30th?

So confusing...

That is what I was told. They didn't ask because they knew what the answer would be.

Now if they can get that one parking space blocked off... I think maybe the Renaissance is the owner of it (for valet).
