CARLSON DEVELOPMENT GROUP

 The 7,200 sqft Seay Electric Building, an electrical warehouse for nearly 40 years and a service station before that, underwent full environmental remediation and facade transformation. It was re-leased to Metro-Mutts, a local-credit tenant running dog boarding and grooming stores. Custom interior improvements include an astro-turfed interior and exterior dog run, epoxied floors, and all new electrical and mechanical.

 The 42,000 Sqft South Lewis Plaza Shopping Center at 71st and Lewis was at 50% occupancy when purchased. Renamed Center71, we transformed the exterior facade, renewed and extended existing anchor tenant leases, added a new national credit tenant anchor in 7500 sqft in the middle of the Center, and back-filled smaller suites with a new dance studio, nail salon, and medical company. At 94% occupancy, we have increased the value 3X. 

The 2,560 sqft former "Super Stop" gas station underwent a remarkable transformation under our leadership. We removed the underground storage tanks (UST) and completely revamped the façade. The newly renovated space was leased to Tonsorial Barbershop, a high-end, 10-chair barbershop. This project not only revitalized a once-dormant property but also attracted a premium tenant, significantly enhancing the site's value and community appeal.

In 20 months we took 27,000 sqft of vacant office, commercial, and industrial space to full occupancy.  Located in the SE corner of Tulsa's downtown Inner Dispersal Loop (IDL), Gunboat Plaza is now the heart of the Gunboat Park Neighborhood.  Tenants include Leardership Tulsa, FC Tulsa Soccer Club, Gopuff, Updog Yoga, and Annie Brady Design.  

 This restaurant was built from two 8’x40’ shipping containers constructed in a “L” shape.  One container serves as indoor seating and a restroom, while the other houses the kitchen. The “L” design creates a natural backdrop for the large 32'x40' deck overlooking the neighboring dog park.  Site design includes accommodation for the floodplain, ADA access, dumpster enclosure, fencing, exterior lighting, and fire pit.  

 We reframed the existing roof structure from a “house” to a “boxed” office shape.  This will created a 1708 sqft floor plan in a 28x 61’ layout with a 350 sqft basement.  During this process we used new 16" TIJ joists to span the full width of the building from North to South, allowing us eliminate all interior load bearing walls and create a completely open floor plan.

The new frame accommodates commercial glass store-front windows on the North and East side of the building. 

The Historic Luxardo Building, built in 1941 with modern lines and Art-Deco finishes, was acquired 2017. With only two tenants and many untenable apartments, we implemented a revitalization plan that included new electric, appliances, kitchens, baths, roof, landscaping, laundry, improved common areas, lighting, floors, and enhanced safety and security.  We had the building fully-leased in 7 months within 3% of the original budget.
