Established historic neighborhood minutes from Tulsa
Interwoven with a profound history, University Park is an established neighborhood blending a quiet residential community with modern conveniences in a historic location just minutes from Downtown Tulsa. Tied to the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, the neighborhood saw the destruction of the Black Wall Street that took place here, one of the deadliest displays of racial violence in American history. Today, this historic area’s ongoing revitalization project carries the full support of committed residents. “People are more passionate here than ever today due to the fact that we have parents or even grandparents who were raised on Tulsa grounds,” says Janayshia Grundy, Realtor for AOG Real Estate and a lifelong Tulsa resident. “It’s more impactful for us to leave a legacy and make sure it’s better for our children.” Part of the new redevelopment measures laid out for University Park involved reshaping and rezoning the district for highways and industrial use, leading to the demolition of landmarks like the Dreamland Theatre. All of this and more is documented at the Greenwood Cultural Center. The educational resource and community facility features personal accounts of the massacre and a virtual art exhibit by local artist Dawn Tree depicting Black Wall Street before and after the destruction.

Restoring the neighborhood with new residences
Since the neighborhood needed to be restored, most homes only date back to the 1950s. A bevy of bungalows and ranch-style homes cluster along the small lots and densely wooded yards of University Park’s residential streets. Though the median hovers around $207,500, asking prices may range from $92,000 to $550,000 depending on square footage and other amenities like garages. “Most people are attracted to this area due to the fact that prices are down, and houses are sitting on the market for about 35 days now,” Grundy says. “It’s a very high-demand area, you’re close to downtown with a lot to do and you don’t have to drive 20 to 30 minutes just to get somewhere.”
Wide avenues lined with mature trees and sidewalks make University Park beautiful and safe.

Education in the heart of Tulsa
Students may attend public schools in the Tulsa Public Schools District, including Emerson Elementary, which earns a C-minus rating from Niche. At B-graded Carver Middle School, a magnet school following an International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program framework, students focus on specialized areas each year: Sixth graders do a deep dive into George Washington Carver, seventh graders learn about shelter building in a joint program alongside its sister school in Israel, and eighth graders focus on boat building and studying the Civil War. The middle school feeds into C-rated Central High School. The neighborhood is also home to Oklahoma State University’s Tulsa campus, where over 2,600 students are enrolled.

Nearby, Hill Park offers an additional playset and tennis and basketball courts. The adjacent Ben Hill Community Center has even more options, including a full gymnasium, an education center with computer and STEM labs, and food and clothing pantries for those in need.

Locally owned stores celebrate the area’s roots
Since University Park is mostly a residential area, most residents head Downtown for shopping, dining and entertainment. Fulton Street Books and Coffee is a well-loved favorite in the historic Greenwood district ideal for spending a slow morning or cozy afternoon. Readers enjoy specialty coffee drinks as they dive into the scores of books, more than 70% of which are written by or feature BIPOC or other marginalized people. A University Park neighborhood staple is Mack’s Wings, which serves what’s widely known as the best wings around. And Onifade’s array of delightful cookie varieties provides a sweet treat for dessert. “Both of these places are amazing,” Grundy says. “They’re Black-owned, and the quality of service is good. I’d go there every day of the week if I could.” Casual chain restaurants are also close at hand at the corner of N Peoria Street and E Pine Street. Just up the road, Oasis Fresh Market fulfills grocery needs for University Park residents.
