Big news for Ponca City! Thanks to the Ponca City Development Authority, the old AMC Theater is getting a major glow-up! ICON Cinemas is moving in with luxury recliners, unlimited popcorn refills, and even an ice cream bar. But this isn’t just about movies—it’s about jobs, community growth, and making Ponca City a more vibrant place to live and work. PCDA has been working behind the scenes for over a decade to make this dream a reality. Bonus: they also helped the Poncan Theatre get new equipment to bring back first-run films! This is economic development at its best.

This is a huge part of economic/community development: reuse revitalizes communities. What could your community do with an empty building? That is where the magic happens.
I help you shape a brighter future for your small town, giving you practical steps you can put into action right away.
