To reinvent the art of city life in Tulsa. To develop from the grass-roots an urban neighborhood that is diverse, intriguing and charming; that adapts to the new realities of the 21st Century and has the character, humanity and convenience of the best, traditional cities; that offers a radical and attractive alternative to suburban living; where it is possible to work, play and shop without recourse to a car; where neighbors work to foster good schools and safe, attractive streets and civic spaces; and where a vibrant, civic environment is matched by enlightened public policies.   To do all this before it is too late.

About the Pearl District Association 
Formerly known as the Sixth Street Task Force, and, even earlier, as the Sixth Street Neighborhood Association, this organization changed its name and re-organized as the Pearl District Association in January, 2006 when the Tulsa City Council unanimously approved the Sixth Street Infill Plan.  The  association holds general meetings on the second Tuesday of every month at the Boathouse* at 6pm.  Several committees are active within the organization including Urban Design, Operation Restoration, Communications, Finance, and MembershipContact the PDA for more information.
