Envision Comanche block party featured on KTUL-ABC 8

Envision Comanche, led by Camiros, is a Master Plan project to transform Comanche Park, a Housing Authority of the City of Tulsa (THA) property, into a mixed-use, mixed-income community while ensuring a strict one-for-one replacement of all existing apartments. Envision Comanche is not just a plan but a guide for community growth, action and empowerment. The plan not only seeks to provide better housing, but to also create additional education, health and training opportunities and ensure improved transportation and park spaces to the residents of Comanche Park, and its neighbors.

The Envision Comanche planning team participated in the annual summer block party to receive direct feedback from residents regarding three draft site plan diagrams of what a transformed Comanche Park could look like. The various elements of the site diagrams which include a range of housing types and age-separated parks for example were informed by community feedback received at previous planning meetings, discussions, and events. Residents were also given the opportunity to create their own site plan using monopoly pieces to represent different building types.
