I've been off and on this forum for nearly a decade. The fact you can't make a post about the Riverwalk without a Donald Trump meme shows just how far it's gone downhill. For what it's worth, I used to obsessively check this forum because it was without question the best place to read thoughtful discussions about Tulsa. I don't care if you are liberal, conservative or moderate. When it comes to local issues none of that really matters...well, it used to not.
I think it has always had a component of "downhill slide" injected at various times and places - lots of thread hijacking. Still, since I am out of town so much, still a place to get info about what is going on around Tulsa. Even if we do have to wade knee deep in the hoopla from time to time....
As for Riverwalk - wasn't really impressed by the idea at that location at the time, but the build-out turned out nice, I thought. Last time we were there it was a huge disappointment to have only the theater on one end and Los Cabos on the other - shows how long it has been since we were there. Always enjoyed just walking up and down the river walk there. Have been able to get some truly magnificent pictures from that vantage point. Wish some interesting places would come into the place.
