Two buildings along Division St. will soon be coming down.
The two buildings, located in the 1400 block of S. Division St, are set to be demolished as early as this week.
One building has seen several restaurants come in and go, including a Braums. The last several businesses have included Mexican restaurants.
The building next door, set to be demolished first, served as a convenience store, but has been vacant for the last several years.
Both buildings sit on land owned by The Oklahoma Commissioners of the Land Office, a government agency of the state. The land commission also owns the several acres behind the buildings.
The Land Office was created by the Oklahoma Constitution and is responsible for managing and controlling lands and funds granted to the state under the provisions of the Oklahoma organic act. These lands and fund are used to support common schools, colleges and universities.
So what happens to the land afterward?
