  • Gentrification in Oklahoma City: Examining Urban
    GENTRIFICATION IN OKLAHOMA CITY: EXAMINING URBAN REVITALIZATION IN MIDDLE AMERICA Clint C. Petty, B.A. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2011 APPROVED: Sean Tierney, Major Professor Murray Rice, Committee Member Donald Lyons, Committee Member Paul Hudak, Chair of the Department of Geography James D. Meernik, Acting Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Petty, Clint C. Gentrification in Oklahoma City: Examining Urban Revitalization in Middle America. Master of Science (Applied Geography), August 2011, 63 pp., 7 tables, 20 illustrations, 58 titles. Gentrification applies not only to the largest and oldest cities; it is a multi-scalar phenomenon playing out in smaller and less prominent settings as well. This study examines temporal changes in property values, demographic characteristics, and types of businesses in the central Oklahoma City area. A major urban revitalization project which began in 1993 created strong gentrification characteristics near the renewal's epicenter, the Bricktown entertainment district. Data suggest that several specific neighborhoods in the surrounding area exhibited rising property values, improving educational attainment rates, decreasing household sizes, and a shift toward cosmopolitan retail activity. While it is evident that Bricktown has been transformed, the socio-economic traits of surrounding neighborhoods have been altered by the ripple effects of urban renewal. Copyright 2011 By Clint C. Petty ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This research was greatly improved by contributions from multiple people. I would like to thank Dr. Sean Tierney (University of North Texas Geography) for his conceptual support and for helping me focus a broad idea into a coherent research plan. I would also like to thank Dr.

  • The Way Downtown Is Supposed to Be
    The Way Downtown is Supposed to Be Downtown OKC It’s known as “the place to be.” In Oklahoma City, a revitalization has firmly taken hold with public and private investment combining to put in motion more than $6 billion in projects and building since 1995. More than 55,000 people work downtown, including high-tech and health care industries as well as high- paying energy jobs, not to mention professional basketball players. Ideal for both living and working, Downtown’s various districts are becoming a magnet for the “creative class,” and fittingly a number of corporate headquarters and new housing developments are located here. In fact, Oklahoma City is bucking the trends and downtown population has actually increased 15% since 2000. It’s the new urban vibe without the old urban grit.
