Does anyone know where in Utica Square the Sakowitz boutique was located?

There was a boutique store in the old Vandever's space in Utica Square.

I don’t think it was in the  Vandevers space.   Vandevers space became John A Brown and then Dillard’s and then Pottery Barn Kids etc.

Like swake said, they were at Kensington. They were in trouble when they opened in either '83 or '84 and were gone in late '85 when the chain went bankrupt. They were a victim of the oil bust back then.

Good article from the NY Times August 2 1985

https://www.nytimes.com/1985/08/02/business/the-downfall-of-sakowitz.html

Yes, they were at Kensington but they also had a boutique store (10,000 square feet) at Utica Square.  Opened at Kensington apparently in 1984 and closed in 1985.  Opened at Utica Square in July 1984, closed in 1985.

Didn't know there was one there, but at that time the closest I got to Utica Square was Tommy's Irish Pub that was on 21st just west of Utica.

I just took a look at the permit portal and… wow. Full demolition coming soon.

There has not been a recorded sale. Prosperity could be building something new, or they could intend to market the empty lot.

Not sure if it's in the Prosperity location, but I've heard Oklahoma Fidelity Bank (recently opened a downtown "mini" branch) is opening a Utica Square location.

Prosperity Bank is on the site fence so I wonder if they are building a new location.  Hopefully they build up to the corner.  Eventually that would be a good place for additional retail space along the street that leads up to Saks from 21st
