Leasing and grand opening information about The Outlet Shoppes at Oklahoma City
Oklahoma City’s fashion faithful are ready. Ready for the new Outlet Shoppes at Oklahoma City to open. It won’t be much longer. I got a preview of the center Thursday morning. Here’s what you need to know:
* Opening date is Aug. 5.
* The center is on West Reno near Council.
* Special hours for grand opening weekend will be 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday and noon to 6 p.m. Sunday.
* Opening weekend entertainment will include a meet-and-greet with Marvel Comics Captain America and Spiderman, Voler Thieves of Fight Aerial and Acrobatic Performance Collective, musician Jamie Bramble, ballet performers, gymnastics demonstrations, face painters, a caricature artist, Salsa dancers and more.
* 83 stores, including Coach, Saks Fifth Avenue Off 5th, Nike, Polo Ralph Lauren, DKNY, BCBG Max Azria and Michael Kors.
* It’s 100 percent leased. “This is very, very rare to open a shopping center 100 percent leased,” said Gina Slechta, vice president of marketing for Horizon Group Properties, developer of the project. “It speaks well to the Oklahoma economy.”
* Expect sidewalk sales, maybe on the big holidays Memorial Day, July 4th and Labor Day.
* The center will open at midnight on Thanksgiving, after being closed during the day for the holiday, Slechta said.
* The open-air racetrack design is easy to maneuver and the center has several covered areas, giving shoppers protection from the elements.
* There will be a children’s play area and a food court, as well as other eateries in the center. Smashburger fans, rejoice.
* Shoppers are expected to come from Oklahoma, Kansas and Texas.
* This is the largest retail facility to open this year in the U.S., according to the International Council of Real Estate.
* There’s room for expansion.
