I'm confused why the backers say this is the only spot they will consider. The land south of the Creek Turnpike is mostly cleared and waiting to be developed (I'm assuming that $1 billion project is not going to happen). This spot has everything the Turkey Mountain site has without the need to minimally invade a nature park.
These folks may have spent a lot of money putting this "plan" together, but something about it just doesn't sound legit.
They don't have the money. Just some attention whore who got a free copy of "Site Plan Rendering Lite" with a connection at the newspaper. |

Looks like I need to make a trip up there this weekend; camera in tow... |

Tulsa Hills and surrounding area development must have something to do with it.
Didn't someone mention God telling him to do it?
What about on the other side of the bridge south of 71st on Riverside Drive. It's an even better location with excellent street access, no security issues with a police station across the street. The two sites can't be 2000 feet apart. The site is flat and potentially huge reaching from 71st to as far south to the Casino at 81st with only one apartment complex and Helmrich park in the way. You could easily just build behind them. You would have almost a mile of waterfront. |

Anyone think we're having a come-apart about something that has no chance of happening?
Seriously...we're talking about
A) an amusement park in Tulsa
B) river development in Tulsa
C) Robby Bell is involved
I think we should all go back to one of our award winning political threads and crap on it.

I don't have shoes that tie. Also, I'll kick my keys to the river before picking them up if I drop them... |

Velcro? Just like Biden?  No worries, I never see any blatant untoward activity or, ahem, telltale signs of it when I'm up there. |

Now, there's some insight. You could have mentioned something about Mayor McFly. |

Stava was on tonight's news (many here are indulging for Fat Tuesday) and said that the home owner (Bruford?) was going to be moving the mansion off the Blair property to one of his properties.
Also, neighbor's along the border of the Blair property received a notification/mailing over the weekend. The first step in rezoning is to survey the adjacent owners to find out the level of resistance.
I'd guess this project is 5-20 years off into the future.

No, the Blair property is the one in question for GKFF's gathering place, so this is the right place. Stava was also on KWGS this morning, talking about the public input forums to be held in March at the TCC Center for Creativity. |

I could've sworn I clicked on "A Gathering Place". How weird! Maybe admin is playing tricks with the links  . |
