TRANSPORTATION CONNECTIVITY
The Kickapoo Turnpike has fundamentally transformed eastern Oklahoma County's accessibility profile. What was once a 45-minute drive to metro Oklahoma City is now 20 minutes via modern toll infrastructure designated as Interstate 335 in 2024.
Regional Access from Property:

Kickapoo Turnpike (I-335): under 1 minute
Interstate 40: 5 minutes south
Interstate 44/Turner Turnpike: 15 minutes north
Downtown Oklahoma City: 20 minutes
Will Rogers World Airport: 35 minutes
Tinker Air Force Base: 23 minutes

Strategic Positioning: This location provides cost-effective access to Oklahoma City's 1.4 million metro population while maintaining proximity to eastern Oklahoma markets including Tulsa (90 minutes via I-44).
WORKFORCE & ECONOMIC DRIVERS
Labor Force Accessibility
Eastern Oklahoma County offers a deep, skilled workforce trained at Eastern Oklahoma County Technology Center (5 miles north) in disciplines including advanced manufacturing, logistics, HVAC systems, and industrial maintenance. The region's affordable housing and quality of life attract and retain talent.
Major Employment Centers Nearby:

Tinker Air Force Base: 26,000+ personnel (15 miles west)

Choctaw retail/commercial corridor: 8 minutes

Market Growth Trajectory
Governor Kevin Stitt identified Harrah as positioned to double its population within 3-4 years. The city's pro-business environment, combined with new Kickapoo Turnpike access, has attracted national retailers (Tractor Supply Co. opened 3 miles west in 2023) and residential development, creating a self-reinforcing growth cycle.
COST ADVANTAGE
Save $10-15/SF vs. Core OKC Industrial Space
This property delivers metro-equivalent connectivity at a 40-50% cost discount compared to facilities in central Oklahoma City or near I-40/I-35 interchange zones. For corporate tenants operating on disciplined real estate budgets, the occupancy cost advantage translates to immediate bottom-line impact.

Core OKC warehouse (I-40/I-35 corridor): $12-15/SF NNN

WHY THIS PROPERTY OUTPERFORMS ALTERNATIVES
Infrastructure Timing: The Kickapoo Turnpike opened in 2021, but many corporate tenants have not yet discovered the accessibility transformation it created. Early movers to this corridor will capture both cost advantages and optimal site selection before competition intensifies.
Dual-Building Flexibility: Unlike single-building facilities, this campus allows corporate tenants to segregate operations (office/distribution, service/storage, or separate departments) while maintaining single-site efficiency. It also provides expansion capacity as operations grow.
Yard Storage Inclusion: The ~1 acre secured yard area is a rare feature in this price range. Comparable properties in metro OKC require separate yard leases costing $0.25-$0.50/SF, effectively adding $20,000-$40,000 annually to occupancy costs.
Visibility & Identity: The 180' frontage on US Highway 62 provides excellent corporate visibility with high daily traffic counts (12,000+ vehicles/day). For companies requiring brand presence, this visibility rivals metro locations at a fraction of the cost.

KICKAPOO TURNPIKE IMPACT
The 19-mile Kickapoo Turnpike (designated Interstate 335 in 2024) has fundamentally restructured transportation patterns in eastern Oklahoma County. According to the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority, daily traffic volumes have exceeded projections by 15-20%, with commercial truck traffic representing 12% of total volume—well above typical turnpike averages.
Commercial Real Estate Response: Since the turnpike's opening:

Industrial land values increased 30-40% within 2 miles of interchanges
Tractor Supply Co. and other national retailers entered the market
Residential development accelerated (500+ new housing units under construction)
City of Harrah approved three new commercial/industrial projects totaling 200,000+ SF

HARRAH'S STRATEGIC POSITIONING
Harrah offers a compelling business environment for corporate tenants:
Pro-Business Climate: The Harrah Industrial and Economic Development Trust provides incentive packages for qualifying employers. The city has streamlined permitting processes and offers expedited plan review for quality corporate tenants.
Workforce Development: Eastern Oklahoma County Technology Center partners with employers to provide customized training programs in industrial skills, logistics, and technical operations—reducing training costs and improving workforce quality.
Infrastructure Investment: Beyond the turnpike, Harrah has invested $8+ million in water, sewer, and road improvements over the past 3 years, creating a utility infrastructure capable of supporting significant commercial growth.
Quality of Life: Rated among Oklahoma's fastest-growing cities, Harrah offers affordable housing (median home price $180,000), low crime rates, and improving retail/dining options—factors that enhance workforce recruitment and retention.
REGIONAL ECONOMIC ANCHORS
Tinker Air Force Base (15 miles west): As the largest single-site employer in Oklahoma with 26,000+ personnel and $3.5 billion annual economic impact, Tinker creates sustained demand for industrial services, aerospace subcontracting, and logistics support. Corporate tenants serving defense, aerospace, or federal markets benefit from Harrah's proximity to this installation.
Oklahoma City Metro Growth: The Oklahoma City MSA has experienced 8.2% population growth since 2020 (US Census), outpacing national averages. This growth drives demand for distribution facilities, service centers, and corporate operations infrastructure—positioning Harrah as a logical eastern expansion corridor.
