Historic community along Cherry Street

Florence Park is a housing district within walking distance of Tulsa's famous Cherry Street. This neighborhood hosts residential streets of 1920s homes surrounded by four major roads and is less than 4 miles from the main action in Downtown Tulsa. “Recently, they revived Downtown Tulsa, which was practically dead except for a few downtown businesses, but everyone got in, and now we have fantastic restaurants and the Gutherie Center,” says Patricia Love-Renton, Realtor with McGraw, holding more than 25 years of experience in real estate. “Some of our buildings are unbelievable downtown, just the history of the building alone.” In the 1930s, Tulsa Little Theatre made history as the first community theater in America to produce the shows “Our Town” and “All My Sons.” Over the century, fires and rebrands have changed aspects of this theater, but its initial purpose of entertaining the public came full circle in 2005 with the most recent renovations.

Subdivisions beside Broken Arrow Expressway

Tudor and Cottage-inspired homes commonly showcase earth tones, steep roof pitches, and brick walls that provide a charming neighborhood feel when walking by on the paved sidewalks. Minimal traditional architecture mingles with the cottage homes, showcasing brick construction and actual hardy wood supporting homes that promote simplicity for the practical homebuyer. These homes are sectioned off by subdivisions, but each enjoys open access to Florence and Pratt parks. Homes list between $270,000 for a two-bedroom 1920s home and $515,000 for a three-bedroom 1940s home.

Picnics at Florence and Pratt parks

Located in the southeast corridor, this park hosts tennis matches, playground fun, afternoon picnics and a splash pad for those especially hot days. Traveling north, Pratt Park keeps picnic options open for the public among the small grassy area with tables and open space tucked away in the neighborhood.

Florence Park third Friday event

Every third Friday, starting in May, Pratt Park hosts food trucks and live music. Meanwhile, at the nearby shopping center, Utica Square, Love-Renton says they put on a free summer concert on Thursday nights that get a healthy turnout. To catch additional performances for a nice night out, locals visit the Gutherie Green for free concerts.

Bussing under Broken Arrow Expressway

Driving to work from Florence Park marks an easy trip, as Broken Arrow Expressway lines the western border for connections to other thoroughfares. Bus stops maintained by Tulsa Transit hold regular pick-ups along 21st Street and Harvard Avenue. To the north, Tulsa International Airport takes locals far beyond Oklahoma. From the theatre to the shops along Cherry Street, Florence Park finds a balance between preserving Tulsa's history and delivering on the everyday needs of the modern homebuyer.

Cherry Street and Pie Hole eats

Dining options around Florence Park lie along the Cherry Street shopping strip, a locally loved walkable retail area along East 15th Street.

While meandering around Cherry Street, locals piece together vintage ensembles at The Racks Tulsa. This shop provides a curated space full of styles that tap into past trends for a retro revival that is sure to draw some attention. When planning for meals at home, Reasor’s is also off Cherry Street, for whenever residents need to restock their pantries and buy produce.
