Block 42 - Downtown Oklahoma City

Specialty Coffee was flowing while Cafe Evoke Catering hung out downtown on Thursday night for the grand opening and ribbon cutting festivities at Block 42. Block 42... "is a new Downtown residential project consisting of 20 town homes and 22 elevator accessed flats. Block 42 is adjacent to the central business district, Bricktown and the Oklahoma Health Center on NE 4th Street and Central. North- and south-bound I-235 is immediately accessible from Block 42, providing easy access to every part of the city. All ‘for sale’ units will be customized to the owner’s finish selections with wood floors, stone counter tops and stainless steel appliances. Each condo has a private balcony or rooftop deck as well as a private garage. The entire project will be pre-wired for high-speed internet and state-of-the-art telecommunications. Block 42 is the first official ‘green’ project in downtown Oklahoma City. By attaining LEED certification (for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), Block 42 has met the sustainability standards of the U.S. Green Building Council. This attention to eco-friendly design translates to a better quality of life for all residents, better indoor air quality and lower monthly utilities expense." The event was great and we had a chance to take a look at the units that had been completed at the end. NewsOK.com blogger Steve Lackmeyer took some great shots from the event. This all happened last Thursday. We have been watching progress of Block 42 for some time now and think that it is a good start for urban living in Oklahoma City. There are so many projects going on right now in the area and we believe that it is just a matter of time before urban Oklahoma City becomes the hot spot for central Oklahoma - if not our entire region when taking into account the new NBA team, Devon's new building, the OKC riverfront, Bricktown and everything else. Cafe Evoke Catering was happy to be a part of this landmark event. We can't think of a better way to celebrate a grand opening - great food from de la Famille, great coffee and espresso drinks from Cafe Evoke Catering, and ice cold beer, wine, and pastries. ...be bold Tagged: cafe evoke, coffee catering, coffee, espresso, block 42, oklahoma, oklahoma city The Global Exchange Fair Trade Store is your Online Source for Socially Conscious Gifts
