The Halfway Point

Oklahoma Ave. is the next street West of Mickey Mantle Blvd. where we began. You can return to street level at Oklahoma Ave. if you so choose as there is a bridge, with green metal surrounding the traditional brickroad, that passes over the canal. Right by Oklahoma Ave. is a parking lot, and this area by the canal has several top restaurants including Bourbon Street Cafe.

The canal continues beyond Oklahoma Ave., gently flowing between the unique shops and clubs. There is literally something to fit almost any taste in both restaurants and bars. The Biting Sow will tell you they're the only one that has live music every night of the week, and everyone is likely familiar with Hooters and Zio's.

Unfortunately, space is limited, and the canal comes to a somewhat abrubt end with a small waterfall and a stone wall. Whichever side you chose (North or South), you should now make your way to the other and work back East toward Mickey Mantle Blvd. Once you trace the canal again, you may need a short rest. But don't sit too long because our tour of Bricktown is not yet complete.
