Maywood Apartments Phase II

[HOT ROD]

sorry to derail the topic, but as an OKC expat I'm surprised that construction there (particularly for multi-family) is still being allowed to be stick built AND that there are little to no basements even though OKC is dead center in Tornado Alley.

There are two levels of below ground parking.

Interesting how they incorporated the billboard into this project.

Look at those lovely little buildings along Walnut, it's so nice that they were able to be preserved.

Would have loved the buildings preserved, but I don't think the underground parking would have been possible. I bet that's why orginall, the plans were for the parking to be in the first few levels and then the residential

Another look at the retail spaces on Walnut.

Is that the reason they built around the billboard? To use for advertising for the retail spaces maybe.

I'm sure there was a pre-existing ground lease for that billboard that they had to work around.

Metropolitan has a similar situation.

Great photo shows how this development is really adding mass to Deep Deuce:

Thanks for all the photos, Pete. It seems like there haven't been a lot of photos posted lately of numerous developments. That, or I'm impatient.

I'm overdue for another round of updates, been a bit crazed.

But, I go by all the active projects several times a week and nothing big has really changed with any of them. Lots of progress but nothing that obvious or interesting.

Edit: oops, different sides of the building.

From today.

I was actually was in the building today and it's coming along fast. The restaurant space is going to be super cool; 3 somewhat separate concepts (La Baguette, Meatball House and a chef's table / lounge) but all can be opened up as one large space. Interior design is going to be killer.

Aiming to get the entire complex open this fall.

Thank you for your frequent and continued updates and photos.

I don't love how the apartments are set back compared to the retail spaces.

Are there any plans for the vacant lot to the south?

[dankrutka]

Thank you for your frequent and continued updates and photos.

Seconded!

[Pete]

Thanks guys!

As you know, it's a labor of love. (And much easier now that I actually reside here).

What's the car wash going to look like? I really hope Larry managed to clean out his office before they torn it down, he had a lot of history in there.

It's going to be in the underground parking garage.

OMG, see - this proves that Underground parking garages ARE feasible in Oklahoma City.

Once again, the elevation and water table in this location are very different than Sheridan/Hudson, wich is obviously being referenced in HOT ROD's post.
