Documents show Hanson part of Tulsa, Oklahoma, redevelopment

TULSA, Okla. – Documents from the development authority in Tulsa, Oklahoma, show that the Hanson brothers are involved in the redevelopment of a building in the Brady Arts District.

Hanson is a musical group from Tulsa made up of brothers Taylor, Zac and Isaac. The Tulsa World (http://bit.ly/2dAQLq2 ) reports that the proposed redevelopment includes a brewery, studio and office space.

The documents show the Tulsa Development Authority agreed to give a low-interest, $2 million loan to the listed developer for the project. TDA executive director O.C. Walker said the development agreement is with Mayfield LLC.

Multiple privacy stipulations bind the development authority from immediately sharing details of the project despite the use of public funds, according to the documents.

The Hanson brothers said in a statement that they have always invested in Tulsa, and their goal is to bring attention and commerce to the city.

“We’re excited to further our development efforts,” they said in the statement. “Next year is Hanson’s 25th anniversary, and we look forward to a world tour, releasing new music, and the continued expansion of our beer business.”

The agreement stipulates that Walker Hanson, the trio’s father, is the contact for any inquiries regarding the development.
