Two new tenants will soon occupy spaces in the revamped Parkway Plaza shopping center on Ed Noble Parkway.

Skechers filed a $135,000 building to renovate 5 adjacent suites totaling nearly 11,000 square feet. The units have been vacant for many years with previous tenants including Souper Salad and Marble Slab Creamery.

Skechers currently operates 2 Warehouse Outlet locations in the OKC Metro: one in Northwest Oklahoma City and one in South Oklahoma City. The company also operates a Factory Outlet in the Outlet Shoppes at Oklahoma City.

Burlington, formerly known as Burlington Coat Factory, filed a demo permit filed by a $900,000 building permit to renovate and occupy the 23,500 square foot space previously occupied by Bed Bath & Beyond.

Bed Bath & Beyond announced in February 2023 that it would close the Norman location and later filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy protection in April 2023 and announced all stores would close.

Burlington currently operates 6 OKC Metro locations: Yukon, I-40 and MacArthur, NW 63rd and May Ave, I-240 and Shields Blvd, Midwest City, and Moore.
