Last week, at the ULI mid-summer gathering in Oklahoma City, local officials and ULI members shared the remarkable story of the city's resilience and rebirth. From the harrowing moments of the Oklahoma City Federal Building bombing to the efforts to revitalize downtown, the panel shared their experiences on how a community overcame tragedy and rebuilt from the ground up. The panel included members of ULI’s 1995 Advisory Service Panel— Jim Klingbeil (Chairman of Klingbeil Capital Management and former Chair of the ULI Foundation) and Lynne Sagalyn (Professor Emerita at Columbia Business School)—who played pivotal roles in developing strategies for reconstructing the downtown core. Their insights, combined with the expertise of industry leaders from Oklahoma City—A J Kirkpatrick, AICP (ADG Blatt), Ronald Bradshaw (Colony Partners), and Cathy O'Connor (COalign Group)—provided a profound understanding of urban resilience and community strength, honoring the past while moving forward. ULI’s Advisory Services remain one of the most important ways for urban development professionals to give back to communities through donating their professional time and providing creative and holistic solutions that cities need today and tomorrow.

It’s always inspiring to see a place through Urban Land Institute where the District Council Leaders gathered in Oklahoma City. OKC really is a boomtown and the team did an awesome job hosting us! Thank you! Urban Land Institute (ULI) Oklahoma, Ashley Terry

Such an amazing time in Oklahoma City at the ULI Midsummer Leadership Retreat learning about the rebuilding of their city and best practices from other District Councils. The Skirvin Hotel is famously haunted, but fortunately no ghosts came to visit me 👻Thank you to Urban Land Institute (ULI) Oklahoma for being such gracious hosts! Looking forward to visiting ULI Idaho in June 2025!!!

Day 2 at Urban Land Institute Midsummer Leadership Retreat went deep. My first experience with the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum was so moving in the daytime I had to go back at night. I was also able to do a quick morning walkabout for coffee through a residential neighborhood. Thanks Urban Land Institute (ULI) Oklahoma for such a meaningful day!
