Description
Mayor Mick Cornett hosts the 11th Annual Mayor's Development Roundtable.
7:41 - Presentation on the Paseo District by John and Joy Reed Belt.
A
This
morning
has
already
been
full
of
a
lot
of
great
information,
and
we
still
have
a
lot
more
to
go.
It's
now
time
for
our
second
batch
of
lightning
rounds.
So
now
that
you
kind
of
see
how
this
goes,
you've
got
to
really
have
your
ears
picked
up
and
ready
to
go.
This
round
will
focus
on
how
vision,
leadership,
risks
and
persistence
have
resulted
in
the
revitalization
of
four
of
oklahoma
city
special
districts
here
to
share
about
the
revitalization
of
automobile
alley.
Please
welcome
the
board
chairman
of
historic
automobile
alley,
anthony
mcdermott.
B
B
Thank
you
for
the
help
13th
on
the
north
and
4th
on
the
south.
We
are
a
district.
We
are
truly
a
mixed
use,
district
and
as
you'll
see
as
we
roll
through
the
slides
we're
not
an
emerging
district
anymore.
We
are
really
an
established
district
that
has
everything
from
retail
to
restaurants,
to
businesses
and
housing
automobile
alley.
B
It's
worth
re,
doing
a
little
history
revision
to
understand
our
brand
and
where
we
came
from
and
why
we're
called
automobile
alley
in
1907
when
oklahoma
became
a
state,
there
were
five
companies
that
sold
cars
in
oklahoma
in
oklahoma
by
the
20s.
The
number
of
automobile
dealers
in
oklahoma
city
alone
had
grown
from
77
to
76,
50
of
which
were
located
on
broadway.
B
B
The
introduction
of
235
traffic
on
the
alley
was
substantially
reduced.
The
60s,
70s
and
80s
saw
a
typical
decline
in
the
central
city
and
the
the
the
events
of
the
90s
completely
changed
automobile
alley,
the
bombing
the
main
street
program
and
the
application
for
automobile
alley
to
become
part
of
the
register.
B
This
is
an
example,
and
there
are
many
in
this
is
top
left.
Is
the
green
lease
cadillac
building
in
1995.
in
2012?
It
looks
like
this
bottom
right
slide.
This
is
a
tax
credit
project.
There
are
31
tax
credit
worthy
projects
in
o'clock.
In
orlando
valley.
It
takes
all
sorts.
This
is
the
womb
courtesy
of
the
coins,
and
you
can
see
the.
B
You
can
see
the
symbolic
entrance
to
the
womb
right
there
on
the
doors
and
a
little
circle
up
there
somewhere.
I
don't
understand
what
that's
about
being
a
man,
the
the
the
first
incentive
on
automobile,
the
first
businesses
to
work
in
to
go
to
work
in
automobile
alley.
Were
businesses
pioneers
like
the
preftakes,
like
the
fudges,
like
the
salyers
rand,
elliott,
people
that
move
businesses
into
automobile
alley?
This
is
a
representation
of
the
businesses
that
that
that
are
currently
on
auburn
automobile
alley,
and
it's
just
a
fraction.
B
There
are
so
many
businesses
located
in
our
district
shopping.
Retail
is
one
of
those
one
of
those
areas
of
development
that
we
are
so
proud
of.
We
have
10
very
robust,
thriving
retailers
in
automobile
alley
right
now
and
they
are
represented
by
by
high-end
bicycle
shop
to
organic
sweaters
from
a
wetsuit
to
an
old
english
table.
So
I
mean
we
have
a
tremendous
variety
of
retail
offerings
on
automobile
alley.
B
We
are
also
very
very
proud
of
our
eating
establishments.
You
can't
have
a
great
district
without
having
great
restaurants
and
automobile
alley
has
10
restaurants.
We
are.
We
have
a
tremendous
variety
of
restaurant
offerings,
but
one
of
the
themes
that
I've
that
we
will
hear
about
today
is
how
important
it
is
to
have
local
participation.
B
All
of
our
restaurants
are
locally
owned
and
here
are
some
examples
of
them,
and
you
know
that
you
can
get
everything
from
a
cupcake
to
a
chateaubriand
on
automobile
alley.
So
we
have
this
wonderful
diversity
of
fantastic
restaurants,
all
locally
owned
or
locally
operated
celebration
automobile
alley.
We
don't
just
have
a
lot
of
activity
within
the
buildings
on
automobile
alley,
but
we
have
a
tremendous
amount
of
activity
on
the
alley.
B
Broadway
is
an
activity
space
for
us
and
you
will
see
on
broadway
any
number
of
events
that
are
occurring
annually
and
they
range
all
the
way
from
the
the
the
martin
luther
king
parade
with
bands
and
a
tremendous
amount
of
like
vitality.
We
have
the
gazette
halloween
parade
the
christmas
festival
lights,
the
memorial
marathon,
which
just
concluded
a
few
weeks
ago
on
the
alley,
a
bicycle
race.
Next
month,
chocolate
decadence,
art,
show
openings
and
and
just
a
lot
of
stuff
2012.
B
B
We've
joined
the
incentive
to
introduce
the
quiet
zone,
stop
the
train,
whistles
we
market
automobile
alley
through
web
print
and
there's
an
insert
a
toll
insert
in
your
packet.
Please,
please
take
it
with
you
bid
improvements
which
include
street
improvements,
and
it's
all
done
through
a
partnership
with
downtown
oklahoma
city
inc,
who
are
our
management
partners.
B
A
And
it
is
spectacular
chris
at
christmas.
I
think
you
saw
some
of
those
thank
you
anthony
now
here
to
share
about
the
revitalization
of
the
paseo
district,
a
couple
who
has
dedicated
themselves
to
the
creation
and
operation
of
the
paseo
arts,
district
and
neighborhood,
and
their
own
art
gallery
is
spectacular.
There
please
welcome
john
and
joy
reid
belt.
C
We
talked
about
an
art
for
an
artful
journey
about
this
particular
spot
got
involved
many
years
ago.
The
client
came,
and
he
had
a
problem
down
there
and
and
this
old
area
was
in
need
of
serious
help.
So
we
got
involved
in
and
decided
that
it
because
of
its
scale.
It
should
be
a
perfect
place
for
an
arts
district
created
in
1929
by
g.a
nichols
where
he,
where
he
designed
the
spanish
village
1929,
was
also,
as
you
remember,
terror
for
economic
development,
and
so
he
moved
into
the
1930s.
C
Many
of
the
properties
here
and
in
nichols
hills
ended
up
on
the
tax
rolls
through
mortgage
foreclosure
and
the
like,
as
it
moved
as
it
moved
through
the
50s
and
60s.
Why
the
hippies
were
there
and
occupied
it
as
their
private
domain
during
the
19th,
late
1960s
and
early
70s,
and
it
was
in
1976
that
we
became
involved.
What
you
see
at
the
top
is
what
it
was
like
in
1976.
C
What
you
see
below
is
what
we've
fooled
with
it
about
for
the
last
35
years.
If
the
picture
you
saw
in
your
magazine
of
joining
myself
was
of
the
date
that
we
started
this
when
she
was
getting
her
phd
as
35
years
ago
each
year
the
paseo
arts
festival
is
developed.
This
is
an
example
of
it.
It
comes
up
on
memorial
day,
so
you're
all
welcome
to
come
to
the
festival
this
year,
it's
fun.
C
It
involves
artists
who
are
on
the
street
over
100
artists
on
the
street
20
galleries,
on
the
street,
three
restaurants
on
the
street,
and
there
will
be
artists
from
throughout
the
state
and
throughout
the
country
as
a
part
of
our
festival.
As
you
see
the
top
here
was
we
used
to
be
a
dry
cleaning
operation
and
it
is
now
arts
area
a
restaurant
center
for
events
and
the
like
you,
what
you'll
see
at
the
top
of
these
images
is
is
what
it
was
and
what
it
is.
C
This
is
now
called
sauced.
It
was
a
part
of
the
of
the
dry
cleaning
laundry
operation
for
many
years
and
is
now
a
very
popular
pizza
place.
We
keep
moving
through
this
section
of
images.
You'll
see
other
pictures
that
tell
you
what
it
was.
This
was
the
oldest
building
on
the
street.
I
went
back
to
1912.
C
C
It's
taken
us
to
fool
this
little
street
and
make
it
make
it
an
arts
district,
but
but
that's
a
part
of
the
game
it's
for
is
for
creating
a
district
where
artists
can
be
and
where
artists
can
have
a
purpose
in
their
own
lives
with
all
of
these
galleries-
and
this
is
another
gallery-
was
transitioned
out
of
that
old
building
that
we
saw
just
a
moment
ago.
These
are
all
very
popular
galleries,
one
of
the
first
one
had
over
17
artists
in
it.
This
has
two
artists.
C
This
is
a
transition
of
what
was
a
center
median
that
we
took
last
year
and
turned
into
a
what
is
a
beautiful
little
plaza
now.
Glenda
goodacre
is
one
of
the
great
artists
of
our
country,
and
that
is
one
of
her
work.
Sakajawea
there
was
a
place
called
paseo
plunge.
We
used,
we
used
to
go
swimming
and
when
I
was
a
kid
we
were
bikes
over
there.
If
you
had
35
cents,
you
could
get
in.
If
you
had
another
15
cents,
you
could
rent
a
swimming
suit.
C
And
then
we
could
swim
in
the
pool,
and
it
was
just
a
wonderful
open
area
place
that
it
was
the
only
place
for
public
like
us
to
go
in
the
1960s.
It
was
transitioned
into
what
was
going
to
be
a
pizza
manufacturing
place
where
they
would
make
the
pizzas
on
the
first
floor.
Freeze
the
pieces
on
the
bottom
floor,
deliver
them
up
with
an
elevator
to
the
top
floor,
and
then
they
would
transition
them
throughout
the
country
and
about
the
time
they
got.
That
accomplished.
C
D
C
These
are
homes
that
have
been
redeveloped
in
the
neighborhood
by
positively
paseo.
This
is
the
old
harding
high
school
that
was
closing
about
eight
nine
years
ago,
we
created
harding
fine
arts
academy
as
a
charter
school,
and
it
occupies
this
with
another
charter
school
harding
charter
preparatory
school.
C
This
is
work,
that's
done
with
harding,
fine
arts
students
and
the
paseo
area,
where
we
collaborate
with
the
students
in
in
harding
to
enable
their
fine
arts
program
to
be
better.
We
also
worked
with
edgemere
school,
which
was
smaller
school.
You
saw
below
it.
Edgemere
school
is,
is
a
small
school,
but
it's
100
years
old
this
year,
built
in
1912.
D
A
E
I
think
it's
it's
really
appropriate
that
I
followed
john
and
joy,
reid
belt.
John
is
probably
one
of
the
guys
I
consider
my
mentors
in
in
the
development
world.
We
started
in
paseo
and
jefferson
park
about
20
25
years
ago,
and
I've
always
have
the
the
greatest
respect
for
what
he
does
and
what
they
do.
E
E
E
I
I
like
to
tell
people
that
I
restore
old
buildings
for
fun
and
sometimes
for
profit,
and
I've
done
this
for
the
last
25
years.
In
addition
to
my
day,
job
as
as
chairman
of
claims
management
resources,
most
of
our
projects
have
been
very
small,
residential
and
small
commercial
office
buildings
in
paseo
jefferson
park
crown
heights
linwood.
E
Some
of
our
projects
have
been
a
little
bigger
the
cameron,
building
the
the
oklahoma
packard
motor
car
building
on
automobile
alley,
and
now
the
the
film
exchange
district,
the
overall
the
over
riding
theme.
For
me,
I
I
want
to
put
together
put
back
together
buildings
that
I
consider
have
significant
historic
value
to
our
community.
E
Oklahoma
is
a
young
state
a
little
over
100
years
old
from
the
20s
and
30s
the
buildings
that
were
built
at
that
time,
primarily
during
oil
boom
times,
where
buildings
that
have
strong
character,
great
craftsmanship,
great
lines,
great
bones,
I
love
finding
dilapidated,
run-down
projects
and
putting
them
back
together
again.
The
film
exchange
district
and
specifically
historic
film
row
is
one
such
project.
E
We
actually
did
have
a
brothel
in
our
district.
When
I
started
buying
property
down
there,
film
roll
project
has
been
a
little
more
complicated
than
our
normal
projects
because
they
were
combined
with
state
and
federal
rehabilitation,
tax
credits,
and
I
can't
stress
enough
how
important
those
are
we
could
not
have
done
film
row
without
the
state
and
federal
tax
credits
and
every
developer
up
here.
That
has
done
a
project,
a
historic
building
project.
E
We
have
to
have
those
to
keep
those
going
and
they
would
not
be
done
without
those
tax
credits,
but
we
also
use
tiff
money
and
geo
bond
money
to
get
the
infrastructure,
the
streets,
the
sidewalks,
the
landscaping
all
replaced,
and
the
city
was
great
to
work
with
robbie
kinsel,
jim
llewellyn,
aj
kirkpatrick,
brent,
bryan,
kathy
o'connor.
I
I
shared
with
brent
and
and
kathy
when
I
first
signed
my
tif
deal
with
the
city.
E
E
It
really
helped
that
devon
decided
to
build
a
little
building
two
blocks
down
the
street
from
us.
It
makes
us
look
brilliant
rather
than
some
crazy
guy
rehabilitating
old
buildings
on
skid
row.
I'm
also
really
excited
about
the
john
rex
school
that
is
going
into
the
the
blank
urban
renewal
block
that
will
actually
connect
film
row
to
the
central
business
district.
E
E
E
I
play
a
long-term
hold
versus
the
daily
income
model
and,
as
it
is
important
to
me,
to
rehabilitate
these
properties
to
the
correct
standards
than
to
come
in
under
budget.
I
know
that
makes
my
bankers
nervous
every
now
and
then,
but
I
want
them
to
be
unique,
correct
for
the
period
and
well
done.
We
frequently
use
original
items
like
the
original
lights
and
original
architectural
pieces,
but
we
also
use
lots
of
glass
and
brushed
steel
for
a
more
modern
retrofit.
E
Two
of
our
projects
have
won
awards
from
the
state
historic
preservation
office,
the
packard
oklahoma
motor
building
over
at
eighth
and
broadway,
and
recently
the
oklahoma
theater
supply
theater
supply
building.
My
biggest
project
to
date
is
the
heart
industrial
supply,
building,
40
000
square
feet,
which
will
be
occupied
by
my
company
claims
management
resources.
E
We
are
90
percent.
We
have
commitments
for
90
of
the
space
and
we'll
have
175
to
200
employees
on
film
row
within
the
next
six
to
nine
months.
I've
enjoyed
doing
these
projects.
I
do
not
consider
myself
a
developer,
and
I
laugh
at
that
when
I,
when
I
see
it
in
the
paper,
I
know
I'm
a
novice
compared
to
so
many
folks
in
town
that
are
doing
these
things.
I
just
love
doing
it.
A
A
F
F
I'm
blair
humphreys,
I'm
with
the
university
of
oklahoma
institute
for
quality
communities,
I'm
also
a
professor
of
urban
design
in
the
college
of
architecture
and
am
a
new
member
to
the
plaza
district
association,
which
is
my
neighborhood.
I
live
in
gatewood,
which
is
just
north
of
16th
street.
You
can
see
the
plaza
district
is
located
about
a
half
mile
west
of
classen
and
it's
a
small
commercial
strip.
You
have
about
two
thousand
households
within
a
half
mile
radius,
with
both
the
gatewood
neighborhood
on
the
north
and
classic
tin,
pin
on
the
south.
F
The
district
was
formed
in
about
the
1920s,
just
basically
neighborhood
retail
services,
pharmacies
bar-
I
guess
casino
gambling
was
neighborhood
services
at
the
time,
as
well
as
plaza
theater,
which
you
can
see
there
with.
The
sign
also
had
a
street
car
route
coming
through
right
in
the
area
around
when
paseo
was
being
built
throughout
the
1950s
1960s.
Of
course,
penn
square
mall
was
developed,
the
neighborhoods
continued
to
move
north
up
class
and
up
northwest
expressway
and
on
farther
north
still,
and
it
really
started
to
take
its
toll
on
the
district.
F
Downtown
was
no
longer
the
place
to
be,
and
over
time
the
results
hit
the
plaza
district.
You
can
see
here
that
when
people
moved
out
of
the
buildings
the
stores
moved
out,
there
was
not
much
going
on
except
crime
and
well.
In
truth,
we
did
have
some
business.
Entrepreneurs
were
working
the
street
corners
regularly.
F
F
Does
this
look
like
a
place
that
anybody
would
want
to
be
or
that
anybody
really
had
hope
could
be
something
more
and
yet
there
was
a
group
called
planning
to
stay
in
1996.
now
mind
you
a
lot
of
times
we
think
of
the
historic
districts.
Historic
neighborhoods,
right
around
downtown
oklahoma
city
is
having
something
special
because
of
their
connection
to
oklahoma
city.
That
was
not
the
case
in
1996.
That
was
before
the
ballpark
opened
susan
hogan
here
is
susan
here
susan
is
susan,
stand
up
susan.
F
F
F
F
You
can
see
just
the
dramatic
change
that
that
makes
developers
like
jeff,
strouble
and
terina
self
got
active
after
the
city
had
made
the
investment
the
institutional
civic
institutions
have
made,
the
investment
developers
came
in
and
they
began
to
bring
new
life
into
the
store
fronts.
You
can
see
here
just
an
example
of
some
of
the
now
active
business,
storefronts
and,
and
that
continues.
We
have
a
range
of
businesses,
everything
from
hair
salons
to
tattoo
shops
and
everything
else
working
in
the
district
we'll
see,
I'm
not
quite
sure
what
I
promised.
F
You
can
see
here
what
I
think
kind
of
the
identity
of
the
plaza
district
that
has
emerged.
It's
young,
creative,
artistic,
organic,
local
and
it's
very
diverse,
I
would
say
it's
probably
the
best
example
of
a
mixed
use
community
in
the
city
today,
in
fact,
I
would
offer
that
is
the
only
place
that
you
can
take
a
date
out
for
dinner.
Catch
a
show,
buy
a
t-shirt,
dance.
The
night
away
to
live
music
have
too
much
wine
and
wake
up
with
a
tattoo.
F
F
They
have
everything
they
really
partner
with
the
local
businesses.
They
have
keep
it
local
is
based
here.
So
they
have.
They
have
different
organizations,
midwest
media.
They
have
all
these
organizations
that
are
contributing
on
a
regular
basis,
so
they
have
a
great
website.
They
have
great
videos,
they
have
great
events,
they
have
great
shops
and
the
shops
help
each
other
out.
They
work
together.
F
F
F
This
is
a
great
event
and
these
great
events,
these
great
events,
whether
it
be
live
on
the
plaza,
which
happens
the
second
friday
of
every
month
or
the
plaza
district
festival.
These
help
bring
people
to
the
district,
help
keep
the
shops
doing
well
and
ultimately,
just
provides
an
amenity
for
everyone.
You
can
see
here,
here's
the
stats
that
you
need
to
know:
135
000
square
feet
of
commercial
space,
32
businesses,
100
occupancy
and
the
districts
doing
all
of
that
on
only
a
hundred
thousand
dollar
annual
budget
for
the
organization
itself.
