Anchored by John Starks Park and within walking distance of the Tulsa Arts District, Melrose Place makes up for its lack of soap opera drama with a steady array of neighborhood amenities that are assets to Tulsa’s north side. “That’s an area that is just north of downtown, almost even walkable to downtown,” says Elizabeth Beaubien, Realtor with Keller Williams Advantage. Walkability and access makes Melrose Place a desirable location for some.…”It’s seen quite a bit of revitalization and renovation.”
