I REALLY hope this project comes to fruition. At least the first phase. My favorite aspect of this project is the streetcar. I will believe it though, the day I see framing go up.

Article in today's T.World says TDA voted to enter into negotiations with Formaation LLC to sale the property at 2nd & Greenwood (the Hartford Building site). Developer claims the multiphase project will start with a $74 million loft and retail development project. As always with any announcement involving TDA and/or east end development - I will believe it when I see dirt being moved. http://www.tulsaworld.com/news/article.aspx?subjectid=11&articleid=20110217_11_A7_Anambi501616Interesting. I didn't realize Ross Group backed out. They were going to raze the Hartford building and build a new headquarters with over 50 jobs relocated from their current offices at Pine & 129th E Ave. I wonder if they are still interested in moving downtown to a different location? |

I sincerely hope not. They wanted two whole blocks of surface parking with their proposal! Not what we need. |

Word is that Ross Group is going on the old Fields Down Randolph site.
Rumor.

Worse, it's a weed growing field - and not "medical" use weed, either.

Three nights work and some help from Councilor Henderson and we can modify that. |

If the Ross Group decides to locate its offices on the old Fields warehouse site hopefully their building fronts Frankfort, 6th and 7th. Their plan at 2nd & Greenwood was 60,000 SF on three levels with surface parking. The area around 6th & Frankfort already has plenty of parking so maybe they won't add more.

I have seen something on TV, probably "This Old House" where the bricks are chipped out of their mortar and reused rather than going to a landfill. Might not be economical in this area. |
