Mod of the Moment

1 Mar

moderntulsa is excited to announce the latest in its Mod of the Moment series. Join us Sunday March, 6th from 4 – 6 pm for drinks, refreshments, music and modern design at the 1958 Robert Buchner designed Scherbatskoy residence located at 1220 East 21st place.

The house, which was featured in the November 1961 issue of House + Home magazine, is located in Mapleridge and is a conglomeration of old and new. The existing house is an addition/rebuild after a fire destroyed a significant portion of the original house. Many people have seen the house from the exterior, now is your chance to see it from the inside.

4:00 pm – 6:00 pm.

30 Jun

The urban Tulsa lifestyle is beginning to come into focus with the introduction of development project 119 Downtown. At the corner of 6th and Cincinnati, downtown Tulsa, this urban project will combine the historic class of the renowned ARCO Building (formerly, the Service Pipeline Building), built in 1949, with modern design elements, materials and technology.

The project will include residences as well as retail spaces with the anchor charted to be a restaurant/market, possibly the first place to buy groceries downtown. The project was designed by The McIntosh Group, will be LEED certified and feature Pohlenz kitchens, extreme sound deadening between units, underground parking, workout facility, common patio with bocce court and living rooftops to name a few. The units will range from approximately 600 sq. ft. studios to 2,600 ft. penthouses. Prices start at $135k.

The demo unit is under construction currently and will be available for viewing in the next 2-3 weeks. The sales office is open daily and several units have already sold. The building is open for visitors and has a lot to see already with the beautiful stone and historic charm.
