For our second-ever theme week, we're exploring Tulsa through the lens of urbanism.

This week we're talking all things built environment, we're talking housing, we're talking post-war car culture, and how we can make this city better for more people. Here are some of the themes that popped up as we planned and executed on this batch of stories for you:

🏢 Tulsa's eternal problem of low population density
🏢 Public-private partnerships and how Tulsa actually works
🏢 How suburban sprawl affects the city's housing market
🏢 How the built environment invites or excludes certain people or groups

Thanks to our fantastic sponsors at @methodgroup_ for supporting Urbanism Week! All these stories are available to read right now at thepickup.com! by @2011prius

Media industry consolidation has hit Tulsa once again. @2011prius found himself curious earlier this year about David Hoffmann, the Florida billionaire who became the new majority owner of the Tulsa World’s parent company Lee Enterprises. Amid an industry-wide audience decline for traditional news media, Hoffmann invested $35 million in Lee, betting on a more modernized business model.

Is the move a bold bet, or more of the same? Will some of that investment trickle down to Tulsa? And who even is this Hoffmann guy, anyway? Read the story at thepickup.com. by @2011prius

Originally from Holdenville, @sterlinharjo has called Tulsa home for 18 years now—he’s on the record in The New York Times saying it’s his “favorite place in the world”—and that warmth of feeling colors every frame of The Lowdown, his latest series for @fxnetworks that drops its season finale this week.

Now that we’ve all seen the show—with its efflorescence of Tulsa textures, characters and cultural touchstones—@2011prius wanted to ask Sterlin about some of the big-picture themes that run through The Lowdown, as well as his burgeoning Oklahoma mythology.

If you’ve ever retreated from real-world heartbreak into the glowy comfort of late-night video games or bought scam merchandise because it had your sports hero’s name on it, a Lenderman song has probably already found its way to you. The 26-year-old North Carolinian has risen to upper-tier indie-rock fame in the last year mainly upon the strength of his album Manning Fireworks and an aggressive touring schedule.

His performance at Cain's showcased a mastery of rock dynamics and pacing, as Lenderman and his band The Wind modulated between delightfully slopped-up originals, wave after wave of rich guitar tones and well-selected covers of his songwriting heroes.

Subscribe for $1 and @matt__gaze will mow your lawn.

The buff and attractive business geniuses at Tulsa publication The Pickup are at it again with another groundbreaking strategy for Subscriber Acquisition (trademarked) and Reader Invigoration (also trademarked).

After many hours of corporate thematizing, business acumen re-refining, and a frankly inadvisable amount of 1000mg acetaminophen, we have emerged with a powerful, agile, and utterly paradigm-shifting idea:

We’re going to have Matt mow somebody’s lawn.

That’s right: For the low price of $1, you can:

1) Support The Pickup’s subscriber-driven journalism,

2) Have full access to every Pickup article ever for a full month, and

3) Enter to win a precise and proper lawn-mowing from Editor-in-Chief Matthew Alan Carney.

Here’s what you have to do to enter:

Go to thepickup.com/products (linked in our bio) and subscribe to The Pickup for $1 BEFORE AUGUST 31, 11:59 PM, at which point the deal will end.

What’s the estimated value of this? I guess it’s like $30. But somebody needs it. We’re trying to fill that need. That’s what community journalism is all about.

This might be obvious, but you need to live in or around Tulsa to win this. Otherwise you’re just giving us $1. Which, honestly, cool.

Anyway.

Ends August 31, 11:59 PM.
