WOW! But So-What

Forgive me for not completing this project with information...

The building permit application for this project was filed on May 7, 2021.  The new construction will add substantially to living options at Chisholm Creek, joining the 287 units at the Argon Apartments, 13600 North Blackwelder Avenue.  Adding to the 180 acre development with more projects planned for the future.

                    

Chisholm Creek will have 587 luxury apartments with Chisholm Creek comprised of the really upscale establishments in Uncle Julio's, Red Solo Pub, Cabela's, COSTCO, TopGolf and an Events Center.  Concerts at the Creek feature live music every Thursday and Friday night and Coffee & Cars happens the first Saturday of every month. Special events like Battle of the Brews and a Halloween party for kids are just examples of the types of activities Chisholm Creek offers.

Chisholm Creek has rolled with the punches and has actually expanded its square footage with its newest addition, The Shops at Market Street, and added several new concepts to its dining and retail offerings.

The Shops at Market Street is a new strip of boutique retailers at Chisholm Creek. The new addition opened in March and features an impressive mix of local flair and new-to-market national brands. Established local retailers like Plenty Mercantile, Shop Good, OKC Soda and Apple Tree Chocolate have opened locations there as well as national-restaurant chain Chicken Salad Chick.

Developments like these which are under constructions, being planned with solid financial footing has helped boost Oklahoma City's growth in the last 10 years.  

Mayor David Holt reacted, 'One is not usually surprised by Census data, but today’s news was a bombshell for those of us who follow this topic.  The official 2020 count exceeded the most recent estimate by 18,740 people.'

OKC's 2020 growth estimate was 662,314; adjusted to a final count of 681,054.

Former Northeast OKC school redeveloped for affordable housing.

Former site of Historic Douglass High School (5th & High) before being moved to the Oklahoma State Fairground at 10th & Eastern (Now MLK Jr.,Blvd) the site now offers affordable housing for the elderly.  Once a vibrant area where Safeway, TG&Y, Grady's Hamburgers (8th & Kelley), Bulter's BBQ and the Fifth Street Diner (My mother owned), the historic site which includes an auditorium and gymnasium provides senior citizens a quiet space that includes reopening of the school indoor pool and lots of workout equipment for its patrons.
