I think the underlying point of this thread is that it is a good sign for our local economy that a Whole Foods is choosing to locate another store here. Period.  It is not a comment on the Urban Design, location, perpetuation of suburban lifestyles....or anything else. It's simply, Whole Foods is building a store in Tulsa, and that is a good thing.  Period.

and. . .it's right down the street from me, so I can't wait!  Grin

As much as I was gripping about it earlier, you are correct.  A somewhat exclusive retailer who bases their store building on income and education levels is building another location here.  It may not LEAD to good things (it remains to be seen) but it certainly points out good things that are already here.  So yes, as economic metric, this is good.

Can't have that.  What ever happened to our beer summit, AM?  You didn't come to Fassler's with the rest of us last night.

How does WF feel about parking behind the building?  The intersection looks pretty nice if you look up and away when you see the QT.

South Tulsa.  I guess we'd all be freaked if we couldn't see a huge parking lot.

Where would we park our giant SUVs?

Any confirmation on this yet?

There's no 2nd Tulsa listing on Wholefoods and the new signs on the SW corner of 91st and Yale say "new development coming soon" and "space available".   

No mention of Wholefoods as of 2 days ago.
