    Nope. Lies and conspiracies. He meant it everyone. ;-)

    No worries. If Rover says he was being sarcastic then so be it. I am just glad he found an aspect of New Urbanism he likes. Everyone has to start somewhere.

    Sorry, Rover. I've just gotten so used to your preposterous invectives and black / white bromides I can no longer detect when you're doing a funny.

    I don't know why it bothers some to have different opinions....."preposterous invectives and black/white bromides". I know what those words mean but I am not sure what you mean. I offer a different view of urban development based on my own experiences with it. If anything, my views are more grey than strict black and white as I tend to believe that most cities develop their own identity over the course of a long time and with a lot of organic growth...that we don't have to follow a textbook or another city's strict teachings to create a wonderful urban identity. I actually live a pretty urban lifestyle for much of the year and think I understand some (not all, by any means) of the issues and have commented according to my own experience and knowledge.

    I didn't mean to derail the topic...I was just winking at JTF and tugging his strings. I actually anticipated he would come back with an instructive post and smiled when he did. He's a serious fellow who I hope gets to live his urban dream in OKC some day.

    Now, what were we saying about Midtown Update?

    The new cool looking parking structure is going up behind the guardian

    Not gonna lie, did not think they were going to make it.

    Glad to be proven wrong.

    Does anyone know if they bought this building. My office looks out on the back of this building and the for sale sign is still there. It was Home Care Medical which moved out recently and it appears they are still cleaning out the space but I am not sure what the arrangement is for the collaborative.

    I really do have a great view of a lot of great projects going on right now at this corner. The Packard building is coming along nicely.

    This is the building at 220 NW 10th. It has not changed ownership recently, so I'm sure they are just renting.

    That is what I surmised.

    Can anyone get pics of 1212? Shouldn't it be getting close now?

  15. #1215

    Default Re: Midtown Update!!

    I posted pics last week, it hasn't changed much. Still has quite a ways to go.

    Maybe it's just me but the word sushi and grill just don't seem to meld.

    I took pics in Midtown today, will post soon.

    So I noticed the sort of vacant lot on Walker just north of Louie's has turned into a spillover impromptu grass parking lot on weekend nights. Someone's gonna need to build a for profit parking garage soon in this area especially with the big apartment building on deck.

    I usually walk the four blocks to this area for lunch because parking is impossible even during the day. Yesterday seemed to be even worse than ever and I noticed there were quite a few cars parked there. I also know that the Unitarian church uses the north side of that lot for their parking as well.

    Nice problem to have.

    There are still tons of grass lots in the area that could easily be paved.


  24. Default Re: Midtown Update!!

    There's so much empty land and parking lots around this area.

    I know what you mean. I would love to see some new residential infill in this area. I would love to be able to walk to work but am not sure I want to live in a one or two bedroom apartment.
