Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for February 28, 2025.
We're starting off with some significant news from the Tulsa Police Department. A local teen was arrested on his 18th birthday following a disturbance at a gym that led to a foot chase and home break-in. The incident occurred yesterday evening and resulted in charges including second-degree burglary and assault on a police officer. This serves as a reminder for our community to stay vigilant and report any suspicious activity.
In a tragic turn of events, a 67-year-old pedestrian lost their life after being struck by a truck near South Delaware Avenue and East 88th Street. The Tulsa Police Department is conducting a thorough investigation, and we urge all drivers and pedestrians to exercise caution, especially in areas with heavy foot traffic.
Shifting gears to weather, we're experiencing a chilly start to the day with temperatures in the low 40s. Expect partly cloudy skies and a high of 58 degrees this afternoon. It's a perfect day to enjoy some of Tulsa's outdoor attractions, like the Philbrook Museum gardens or the Gathering Place.
In real estate news, Tulsa's housing market continues to show promise for investors. Recent reports indicate that our city's real estate values are predicted to increase, driven by major infrastructure projects like the US-169 Widening and Vision Tulsa initiatives. The median home price in Tulsa remains about 53% below the national average, offering significant room for appreciation.
On the job front, the Project Anthem Data Center Campus, while not expected to be completed until 2027, is already creating buzz in the tech sector. This $800 million investment is anticipated to bring new jobs and stimulate economic growth in our area.
In community news, the Tulsa Arts District is gearing up for its monthly First Friday Art Crawl tonight. Local galleries and studios will be open late, showcasing the vibrant creativity of our city's artists. It's a great opportunity to support local talent and enjoy the unique atmosphere of downtown Tulsa.
Sports fans, don't forget that the Tulsa Oilers are facing off against the Wichita Thunder at the BOK Center tomorrow night. It's sure to be an exciting match-up, so grab your tickets and cheer on our home team.
Lastly, we'd like to highlight a heartwarming story from our community. The Tulsa Food Bank has reported a record-breaking food drive, collecting over 100,000 pounds of non-perishable items last week. This incredible effort will help thousands of families in need across our city. We're proud of the generosity and compassion shown by our fellow Tulsans.
