Dunlap Codding In the News—New Offices Being Built in the Film Exchange District of Oklahoma City
The Journal Record recently reported on Dunlap Codding’s new offices in the works at 609 West Sheridan in the Film Exchange District of Oklahoma City. Reporter Brianna Bailey wrote, “With the help of the commercial construction company Design+Build Group, local intellectual property firm Dunlap Codding is transforming a 1920s-era industrial building in the Film Exchange District into a headquarters for its growing law practice.” The firm’s shareholders purchased the 14,250-square-foot brick building in December.
Douglas Sorocco, one of the firm’s shareholders, was quoted as saying the area was a good fit for the firm. “Since we work with very creative and innovative people – artists, scientists and musicians – we wanted a space that kind of reflected that creativity and innovation we see in our clients,” he said. Working closely with Design+Build Group, the firm is remodeling the industrial space—originally built in the 1920s—to include more than 40 new windows and skylights in the brick building. The firm has also planned a spacious outdoor courtyard for employee use and anticipates making the space available for community creative events. The firm also anticipates expansion and is building in the infrastructure for an eventual second and third floor.
