I’m also thinking along the lines of a coffee shop, restaurant, or heck, maybe even a hotel or office tower lobby. Thanks a lot.

It’s hard to know what exactly you’re looking for. I’m from Edmond and I’ve never set foot in Around the Corner…

Leadership works, but if there are too many people, nobody will be able to hear. The acoustics there are terrible.

If you’re thinking along the lines of a coffee shop, restaurant, or heck, maybe even a hotel or office tower lobby, which is exactly what you said you’re thinking, then there is no doubt the lobby/atrium of Leadership Square is the place. It has the name – Leadership – and it is where you’ll see more people you might know than any other place in downtown. And it is easy to “gather” there.

There is some empty space in the former downtown home of the Legislature … for now anyway.

I’m sure Sandridge has some room for an inside gathering? Especially if it’s Steve and friends, j/k.

There is usually a large group gathering outside of the civic center plaza, although that is an outside location.

The best inside gathering spot in the middle of downtown I can think of is Leadership Square.

The closest we’ve got is the Centennial Fountain, but I don’t think even that fits the bill entirely.

Nick, this would need to be inside. Lee, my house is out of the discussion.

McNellies
Cafe du Brasil
OKCMOA roof is a good suggestion
