Maple Ridge — Pulse of Tulsa

Maple Ridge

Historic homes, towering trees, and quiet elegance in midtown Tulsa.

Maple Ridge is Tulsa's original prestige neighborhood — the place where oil money built mansions in the 1920s and the trees have had a century to grow. Walking these streets is like browsing an architectural catalog of early-twentieth-century American wealth: Tudor Revivals, Colonial Revivals, Arts and Crafts bungalows scaled up to minor estate proportions.

Swan Lake Park, a small jewel at the neighborhood's center, draws walkers, readers, and anyone looking for a quiet bench under a canopy of oaks. Woodward Park and the Tulsa Garden Center are immediately south, adding 45 acres of botanical gardens and arboretum trails to the neighborhood's green footprint.

Maple Ridge is residential more than commercial, but its location — between Cherry Street and Brookside, minutes from everything — makes it the calm eye at the center of Tulsa's best neighborhoods.

Neighborhood Rhythms

Mornings are dog walkers at Swan Lake and joggers on the tree-canopy streets. Afternoons are for strolling Woodward Park. The neighborhood is quiet by design — the action is on Cherry Street and Brookside, both a short walk away.

Getting Here & Getting Around

Roughly bounded by 15th Street (Cherry Street) to the north, 21st Street to the south, Peoria to the east, and Riverside Drive to the west. One of the most walkable neighborhoods in Tulsa.
