Kendall-Whittier Neighborhood One of Tulsa's most eclectic neighborhoods. Home to The University of Tulsa, The Center for Individuals with Physical Challenges, and Whittier Square.

Close to many Downtown and Midtown Tulsa attractions. Convenient highway access. Bounded by Eleventh Street on the south, Utica Avenue on the west, Harvard Avenue on the east and the BNSF (Dawson) tracks on the north. The Craftsman Bungalow and Tudor Revival houses prevalent in the neighborhood are built to a human scale, have plenty of natural light and inviting entryways. (Updates in progress...)

KW “Improvement” District. An insular (board includes a mother and her son, and uncle and his nephew) 10 person board making decisions about what our neighborhood looks like.

They collect money from the stores KW residents are more likely to shop at and funnel it to improving Whittier Square, all along neglecting most anything south of Second.

They ignore Open Records Act requests and one board member even screams at citizens for asking about them.

Maybe one KW resident on the board although the Tulsa Planning Office website says 20% of board members are residents (bad math or plain lies?) and absolutely zero members who live along the areas adjacent to the district.

Wanna know how we get the KW Main Street logo and those d***y looking directional signs scattered along our streets? Come see how few resident stakeholders are on any KW boards…
