[QUOTE="p238shooter, post: 3294389, member: 24583"] I lived over 23 years starting about 1972 a half mile from the original Southland Shopping center, then Southroads mall was built accorss the street, and then Southland was closed almost a year to be totally enclosed and reopened as Promenade. During that time the first half of Woodland Hills opened and put a big dent in shopping in that area, along with a lot of other small businesses around, Eastland was hoping to compete and help move Tulsa east, but had financial trouble for 10 years and was not able to recover. I was as electrician on the first half of Woodland Hills as it was coming out of the ground. It was out in the middle of nowhere in a cow field with cows still wandering around. I did not take my lunch one day, had to drive 2 miles to 51st street to get the nearest burger at that time. What a change now. [/QUOTE]
