SYSTEMS CONTRACTOR NEWS (SCN) - Luxury Sports Bar Installs 1,600 Square Feet of Displays

When four sports fans got the chance to build their dream bar, they didn’t stop until their very audacious vision was a reality. That vision was a 7,500-square-foot luxury sports bar—Chalk—that would rival a Vegas sports book … in Oklahoma City, OK.

Their dream was to be the spot where Oklahoma sports fans could be awed, have a nice meal, and watch any and every sporting event in the world at the same time.

Looking for the perfect city to debut the new you of the new year? We’re pretty inclined to believe that OKC could be the perfect spot for you, but then again we’re also pretty biased. So you don’t have to take our word for it—Livability recently ranked Oklahoma City as one of the top cities to get a fresh start. We can’t honestly say we’re too surprised, considering how OKC recently received the “America’s Most Livable Community Award” by Partners for Livable Communities.

Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
Modern neighborhoods tap into OKC’s former glory
Settled by robbers and outlaws in the late 1800s, it’s easy to think of Oklahoma as the Australia of America, but it’s time to stop calling it “flyover country.” Having weathered the largest homegrown terrorist attack in U.S. history, enormous economic fluctuation, and of course the infamous tornadoes that sweep through the state in the summertime, Oklahoma City carries chutzpah that is not to be underestimated.

OKLAHOMA CITY – Chisholm Creek’s first residential development will open this summer, with leasing starting next month.

OKLAHOMA CITY – Yokozuna sushi and Pan-Asian restaurant in Chisholm Creek’s Tract 30 building has nearly twice the seating of its two Tulsa-area predecessors.

McNellie’s Group Operating Partner Matt Leland said the restaurant is only working with about 150 of those seats right now because the remaining 100 spots are outside. The rooftop patio is still under construction.

The delay in opening the patio will help the crew get used to the larger area, Leland said.

National chain Life Time Fitness has entered into contract to purchase property at the southeast corner of Memorial and Western with plans to construct the largest fitness center in Oklahoma City...The location is directly east of the massive Chisholm Creek development.

Love Funding said it has closed a $37.5 million loan for the construction and permanent financing of Chisholm Creek Apartments in the mixed-use Chisholm Creek development west of Western Avenue and south of Memorial Road. Washington, D.C.-based Love's Senior Director Leonard A. Lucas secured the financing through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Section 221(d)(4) loan insurance program. The 287-unit, four-story building will feature an urban-style wrap layout that encompasses a courtyard and pool area and includes a parking garage at each end.
