New developments in Garden Neighborhood Council
The Garden Neighborhood Council community in northeastern Oklahoma City has an atmosphere of rapid revitalization, in part spurred on by competitively priced homes. Denyvetta Davis, President of the Northeast OKC Neighborhood Coalition, says, “Neighborhoods in this part of the city have been a little run down and half-forgotten for a long time, but that’s changing.” “Northeast OKC is on the up-and-up, for sure,” Davis says. She adds that the new commercial and residential developments are just a start: “We want safe, healthy and flourishing neighborhoods, and we’re excited about the future.”
Midcentury Minimal Traditional cottages are common
Here in Garden Neighborhood Council, you’ll find mostly midcentury Minimal Traditional cottages. Many feature original aluminum carports and chain link fencing, small front stoops and horizontal vinyl siding. Davis notes that investors and “house-flipping hobbyists” have been drawn to the neighborhood recently for the “relatively affordable prices.” For a two-bedroom, one-bathroom cottage built in 1952, featuring slim-plank hardwood flooring and original metal kitchen cabinetry, you can expect to pay around $57,000. For a two-bedroom, one-bathroom cottage built in 1954 and freshly remodeled with design details that nod to its midcentury roots, like vintage-looking pastel appliances in the kitchen and sleek black and white penny tile in the bathroom, you’ll likely pay closer to $150,000. “Prices here are below prices in the rest of the city,” acknowledges Davis, noting that it’s part of the reason this area has seen an influx of investors recently.

The Oklahoma City Public Schools district serves the community
Garden Neighborhood Council students attend schools in the Oklahoma City Public Schools district. Many go to Thelma R. Parks Elementary, F.D. Moon Middle and Douglass High, all within 3 miles of most homes. Douglass High, established in 1891 as the first school in OKC serving African-American students, is one of the city’s oldest public schools. Known affectionately today as the “Pride of the East Side,” the storied high school counts famous Jazz musicians Charlie Christian and Jimmy Rushing among its alumni. Off Coltrane Road on the neighborhood’s east side, the Garden-Diggs Head Start Center public preschool has been serving the community’s littlest students since the late 1980s.

An expansive park named after local civil rights figures
Also off Coltrane Road, next to the Head Start Center just half a mile from most homes, is Diggs Park. Named for Daniel and Alzena Diggs, two of the most important figures in OKC civil rights history, the expansive park is a great place for residents of all ages to burn off some energy. The classic, forest green and brown playground has no less than four slides and overlooks a fully fenced basketball court. The entire sunny, 14.5-acre park is circled by a paved multipurpose trail, dotted with picnic pavilions and newly installed benches.
Diggs Park is conveniently located within walking distance of Garden Neighborhood Council.

Two dining and entertainment districts close by
Less than 6 miles east of downtown, and just 4 miles south of the Adventure District, Neighborhood Garden Council is well-positioned between two of OKC’s most popular dining and entertainment districts. But even closer to home, you’ll find plenty of adventure at Lost Lakes Adventure Park. Visit the unique waterpark for all kinds of lakefront fun, from wakeboarding to floating bouncy houses. And when it’s time to dry off and get back to everyday adventures like shopping for groceries, many residents head 2 miles down 23rd Street to The Market at Eastpoint. The Market began as a community garden and urban farm designed to put an end to the area’s “food desert” status and has been working to move from simply providing food access to ensuring food justice and food security since 2021.
Garden Neighborhood Council is just a short drive to OKC's Adventure District.
Just two miles from Garden Neighborhood Council is The Market at Eastpoint.
