$80M Boulevard Place set to rise in downtown OKC after years of delays

A tower crane is set to once again appear in the downtown Oklahoma City skyline as construction ramps up on the long-delayed $80 million Boulevard Place immediately east of the Omni Hotel. The seven-story, 262-unit Boulevard Place is the tallest downtown housing built from scratch since the 1966 opening of the 24-story Regency Tower at 333 NW 5th St. Boulevard Place is being built at the southeast corner of E.K. Gaylord Boulevard and Oklahoma City Boulevard and is at the gateway to the stadium district being built to the east. The owners of the Oklahoma City Thunder, meanwhile, have shown an interest in developing the current Paycom Center block that is north of Boulevard Place once Continental Coliseum is complete. All of that development provides little wiggle room for construction, said John Semtner, project engineer with Tradesman Architectural Studios. "This project is a very tight and difficult site," Semtner said. "To see this rise up out of the ground is a very exciting moment in construction."

Democratic Caucus Call to Resign

Analysis: Oklahoma House Democratic Leadership is calling on Rep. Danny Williams, R-Seminole, to resign after being re-elected during the general election Tuesday night. Earlier this year, Williams faced allegations of sexual misconduct which led to the House Rules Committee meeting in September to discuss and recommend disciplinary action. The committee made several recommendations, including requesting Williams step down from his position. Now that he is re-elected, members of the House Democratic Caucus are renewing the call for him to resign. Apparently Democratic Leadership loves partisan attacks and hates Democracy as demonstrated by public vote.

Democratic wave could bring changes to Oklahoma County government

Oklahoma County government could have a distinctly different feel in a few months after Democrats swept general election races. Voters flipped the Board of Oklahoma County Commissioners in an election that ended Republican Party rule, which had held since the 1970s. Plus, if freshly elected Democrats vote as a bloc, the Nov. 3 election will lead to a shift in the balance of power on the usually nonpartisan County Budget Board, where personalities often dictate action more than partisan politics. Come Jan. 4, 2027, the commissioners' board will have a 2-1 Democratic majority, with Jennifer Mayo, 35, representing District 3 , which has not been held by a Democrat since 1981. She will join Democratic Commissioner Jason Lowe of District 1 and District 2's Brian Maughan , who will be the lone Republican. Also on Jan. 4, Democratic Assessor-elect John Gibbons will take office after beating incumbent Larry Stein. Democratic Treasurer-elect Jessica Thompson , 37, who won that open seat, will not take office until July, the start of the 2027-28 fiscal year.

First Watch: Stuff You Should Know

Oklahoma Is the Most Reliably Republican State in the Nation. Tuesday Night Didn’t Change That. Let’s start with what actually happened nationally, because the scale matters. Democrats made significant gains in state legislatures and flipped House seats across the country in what analysts are calling a historic midterm for the party. Democrats picked up 29 House seats and counting, powered by a broad backlash to two years of Trump administration policies. It was the kind of election night that reshapes political maps.
