222 S Kenosha Ave, Tulsa, OK
Hodges Bend | East Village | Downtown Tulsa
222 South Kenosha Avenue is a freestanding, architecturally distinctive commercial building located at the corner of S Kenosha Avenue and E 2nd Street in the heart of Tulsa’s Hodges Bend neighborhood within the East Village District. The property is immediately recognizable for its modern-industrial design, clean lines, and strong corner presence, making it well suited for destination-oriented restaurant, bar, and experiential retail users.
The building features a highly visible corner façade, expansive storefront glazing, and a combination of smooth stucco, steel, and wood architectural elements that create a contemporary urban aesthetic. Prominent signage placement, combined with wraparound frontage, provides excellent brand exposure from multiple directions. The building’s design supports both daytime and evening operations and stands out among surrounding historic and adaptive-reuse properties.
A major asset of the property is the covered patio and outdoor seating area, which wraps the building and is clearly defined by wood and steel railing. This space creates a strong indoor-outdoor connection, enhances curb appeal, and adds functional seating capacity—an increasingly valuable feature for food-and-beverage and hospitality users in Downtown Tulsa. The patio benefits from visibility, pedestrian activity, and proximity to nearby entertainment and dining destinations.
The property is located within Hodges Bend, a neighborhood known as one of Tulsa’s premier hubs for restaurants, bars, nightlife, and creative concepts. Hodges Bend draws consistent foot traffic from downtown residents, office users, and visitors, and has developed a reputation as a go-to area for independent operators and experiential venues. The surrounding blocks feature a mix of dining, entertainment, creative office, and residential uses that support both lunch and evening demand.
More broadly, the building sits within the East Village, a rapidly evolving district characterized by adaptive reuse, new residential development, boutique hospitality, and proximity to the Tulsa Arts District, Greenwood District, and the downtown core. East Village continues to benefit from sustained public and private investment, reinforcing long-term tenant demand and neighborhood momentum.
While the property does not rely solely on on-site parking, off-site parking options are available nearby, supplemented by street parking and walkable access from surrounding blocks. The location supports an urban, pedestrian-oriented customer base while remaining accessible to patrons arriving from across the Tulsa metro.
Overall, 222 S Kenosha Avenue offers a rare opportunity to lease space in a high-visibility, design-forward building within one of Tulsa’s most active and desirable downtown submarkets—ideal for restaurant, bar, lounge, or experiential concepts seeking strong identity, outdoor seating, and neighborhood energy.
