Clark Crew BBQ
When I posted several months back about the renovation being done by Clark Crew BBQ, here's what the building originally looked like:

It had previously been an Italian restaurant.
Clark Crew had plans to build a new smokehouse.
But I figured that the changes to the existing building would be largely on the interior, not so much on the exterior.
Um.... WRONG!
The transformation is so great, I can hardly even tell that it's the same structure.

Looks great.
That's a lot of money they've plunked down on the rehab.
Hopefully it turns out to be worth it.
It's not open yet, but apparently that date is not far off.
Just for reference, I'll point out some of the surrounding structures...
In the background, to the right, is a trio of nearly identical office buildings.
This is Landmark Towers.
At the intersection of NW Expressway and Grand Blvd, the group of (mostly) beige/brown brick buildings is the Integris Baptist Medical Center.
Further down NW Expressway, the black tower with red trim is Union Plaza.
Also down the road, but on the left, the white tower is
Embassy Suites (originally a Marriott Hotel) that is receiving an extensive renovation.
This is all slightly south of Lake Hefner.
A lot of activity has been occurring in this area -- it's worth another post of its own.
You can also tell that a section of NW Expressway has recently been re-paved.
That was done several month ago.
I just happened to chance across a few photos of the new asphalt being laid down:
