FELIX STREET MALL PHOTOS
Between 5th & 7th
After Urban Renewal, the city modified downtown Felix Street between 5th & 7th street numerous times with hopes of bringing business back to downtown
They tried removing the street, making it into a walking only mall - that failed
They changed the traffic flow from 2 way to one way and then back again
They drastically modified 7th street between Edmond and Felix and then put it back the way it was originally
They removed the parking meters and are now considering reinstalling the meters
