This part of Tulsa runs from the art deco office towers of downtown and the Blue Dome and Greenwood districts south through Midtown, taking in Cherry Street along 15th Street, Utica Square, the Brookside shops along Peoria Avenue and the Riverside Drive corridor beside the Arkansas River and the Gathering Place, then east to the neighborhoods around 31st Street and Yale Avenue. Two of the region's largest hospitals sit here: Hillcrest Medical Center and Ascension St. John Medical Center, both in the 74104 ZIP code.
Families here are often choosing between an older house close to everything a parent knows and a newer building farther south. Licensed care inside these ZIP codes leans toward established nursing homes and a few long-standing nonprofit campuses, so for purpose-built assisted living the comparison usually extends south along Lewis and Yale avenues.
