Temper your enthusiasm. While this would be awesome, it sounds like there are still a lot of moving pieces before it is locked into place. Lots of credit to the Ross Group for wanting to get things locked up before making an official announcement.  Seems like many people tend to do the opposite.


Perhaps the Mayor's Office should issue an official moratorium on pre-mature official announcements, at least until Jeff Speck has a chance to complete his downtown walkability analysis (with the hope that Mr. Speck will include some recommendations on best practices for making official announcements in his downtown walkability study official report).

Dude,  "Do you even read?"

These threads are full of references to who he is and how he is relevant here.   And of course, there is the internets.  You could look him up...

I think he was getting a belly-full of the Jeff Speck name drop one, two, or three times in Bamboo’s posts.

The Tulsa Club folded in 1994, and the building fell into disrepair. C.J. Moroney, a California investor, purchased the building three years later.

"Investor"?

Among the oldest structures in downtown Tulsa, the 92,220-square-foot, 11-story building was constructed in 1927 as a joint venture between the Tulsa Club and the Tulsa Chamber of Commerce. Architect Bruce Goff designed the Zig-Zag Art Deco structure.

Tulsa Chamber of Commerce must've been a different beast in 1927.

He's a 50ish city planner, author, and purported metrosexual.

Of my 1300+ posts on the TulsaNow Forum, I've mentioned him by name in approximately 1% of the total, usually when I feel it's appropriate to mention him by name, but sometimes just for fun, and sometimes when I'm all alone, thinking about him, or glancing teary-eyed at the small photo of him that he gave me to savor and cherish, as I fondly remember those precious, fleeting moments he and I shared together.

Thank you for inquiry and have a wonderful day.
