BRITTON DISTRICT The Britton District is one of OKC’s latest areas being revived by a group of business
owners and passionate neighbors working to preserve a stretch of Britton Road along historic Route 66. This area boasts vibrant murals, vintage boutiques and live music. Not to mention tasty eats ranging from locally brewed coffee, beer and even a distillery to Southwest cuisine and more.
EAST END DISTRICT The East End District is in northeast OKC along NE 23rd Street and is experiencing vibrant redevelopment using a community-based approach to ethically preserve African American art and culture. The East End District’s food scene continues to expand its offerings, anchored by the state’s first James Beard Awardee, Florence’s Restaurant, along with bars and restaurants including Polk House, Carican Flavors, Eastside Pizza, Kindred Spirits and Scrambl’d. Visitors can also enjoy street festivals like Juneteenth on the East and Homecoming Weekend, plus a variety of retail offerings. Spiked Coffee and Belle’s Books host community events and activities including poetry nights and book releases. The Hamlin Hotel, a new 77-room boutique hotel, is slated to open in Spring 2025.
HISTORIC CAPITOL HILL This business district, which was established prior to Oklahoma statehood, offers a glimpse
back in time with historic buildings and classic facades from the early 1900s. Located just south of downtown on SW 25th St. between Walker and Broadway, the area is also called Calle dos Cinco and is an enclave for the city’s Hispanic and Latino population. The district is home to dining, local shopping and the award-winning festival, Fiestas de las Americas. Several revitalization projects are underway, including construction of a new Festival Plaza for community and cultural celebrations.
