Indianapolis – Retail real estate firm Simon has announced the location for its Tulsa Premium Outlets.
The project will be built in the city of Jenks, Oklahoma. The first phase of the development will be approximately 325,000 sq. ft. and feature 80 to 90 stores. Construction in Jenks is scheduled to start in spring 2016 with an opening in summer 2017.
