 Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Friday, October 10th, 2025.

We begin today with a major announcement from city hall. Tulsa’s city council has just approved a new tax increment finance district to support The Riverline, a massive joint development with the Muscogee Creek Nation. This project near 81st Street and Lewis Avenue, across from the River Spirit Casino, will cover 37 acres and transform South Tulsa with $200 to $300 million of new retail, restaurants, housing, and entertainment. City leaders expect construction to begin by next summer, promising new jobs and big changes to the landscape.

In the courts, the Oklahoma Supreme Court has struck down the creation of special business courts planned for Tulsa and Oklahoma City. The bill would have allowed the governor to appoint business court judges, but the court ruled that these positions must be filled by election under the state constitution. Business leaders will now have to wait for fresh legislation possibly next year.

Speaking of business activity, the eastbound lanes of Interstate 44 near Memorial Drive have just reopened after a crash with injuries caused a shutdown during the morning commute. Drivers should see normal flow again but remain vigilant for lingering slowdowns in the area.

Turning to real estate, rising development in South Tulsa is not the only big news. The Tulsa Housing Authority is advancing a $190 million redevelopment project in Comanche Park that will bring much-needed affordable housing and economic activity to North Tulsa.

On the weather front, we can expect warm and breezy conditions today. Temperatures will top out around 86, with similar highs over the weekend. Keep an eye out for occasional gusty winds if you have outdoor plans.

Now to safety and public affairs. Tulsa police are searching for a suspect after a tragic shooting in North Tulsa left an 18-year-old dead and a 14-year-old hospitalized. Authorities are urging anyone with information to contact police. In another case resolved this week, a Tulsa man has been sentenced to life in prison for the 2021 killing of his stepfather near 21st and Sheridan. Officers and community groups continue to work diligently to address violence and offer support to victims' families.

Let’s shift our focus to education and sports. Tulsa Public Schools are celebrating improved student achievement this fall, which Superintendent Johnson attributes to growing collaboration across the district. On the volleyball court, The University of Tulsa’s women’s team is enjoying its best start since 2016. The Golden Hurricane will face UAB at the Reynolds Center tonight at six o’clock, with a big Pink Game for breast cancer awareness. Sunday’s match brings Memphis to town, promising another spirited crowd. Young fans can join Capes and Crowns Day and meet costumed characters between rallies.

For our job outlook, South Tulsa’s new development is expected to open hundreds of jobs by next year. Meanwhile, city jobs boards list just under a thousand open positions across retail, healthcare, and construction this week, a sign of ongoing economic momentum.

With the Board of Adjustment meeting canceled for October 14th due to a lack of quorum, residents interested in land use issues should check the city’s planning website for the next opportunity to weigh in.

Looking forward at community events, Tulsa’s neighborhood associations are holding fall festivals all weekend, and the Gathering Place is hosting its autumn family picnic on Saturday afternoon. For a feel-good story to start your day, volunteers coordinated a food and clothing drive near Admiral and Harvard this week, helping over fifty local families with warm meals and essentials as we move closer to the holiday season.
