Flix Brewhouse
https://www.okctalk.com/content.php?...Flix-Brewhouse
A combination movie theater and brewhouse will be constructed in north OKC, along the Broadway extension near Britton Road.
Flix Brewhouse originated in Round Rock, Texas and has 9 other locations including Albuquerque NM, Des Moines IA, El Paso TX, and Madison WI.
This will be the 10th location and the first Flix Brewhouse in Oklahoma.
Quote:
The theater will have a microbrewery onsite, brewing around 30 beers, including at least half a dozen unique to Oklahoma.
These will be available across the site’s nine auditoriums, which will offer seating to around 950 people.
Each seat has a call button – designed not to disturb other guests – where movie-goers can order drinks and food from a menu that offers an elevated take on American pub food.

This is the first project of an ambitious set of new developments by American Fidelity.
Quote:
American Fidelity Corporation is privately owned with its primary business being American Fidelity Assurance, a health insurance company.
The Oklahoma City Chamber of Commerce shows the enterprise as one of OKC's largest employers at approximately 1,650 employees.

American Fidelity originally purchased the land holding the OPUBCO properties in 2012.
This included a 12-story tower, which they have since renovated.
OPUBCO (Oklahoma Publishing Company) moved their offices downtown.

Location:
The land to be developed is a 55 acre tract, south of the tower and several large ponds.
As seen in the photo above, this tract has been scraped down to red earth in preparation for the new buildings.
Design plans:

The plans are quite ambitious.
In addition to the Flix Brewhouse building, there are 4 restaurants, 3 office buildings, and 2 hotels (an 8-story and a 6-story) depicted in the design draft.
Flix will be the first development in this lot.
The large warehouse containing the old OPUBCO printing presses was not needed and was demolished.
This was finished by early March.

The entrance to the theater/brewhouse will face the east side.
The back of the building will face the highway, as shown in this rendering:
