Could Edmond get a Shake Shack and Ruth's Chris? Officials weigh tax incentive

Edmond development officials are looking at what incentives might be used to close deals with some of the biggest names in national retail and dining, including Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse, Shake Shack, Cooper’s Hawk Winery and Restaurant, Dick’s Sporting Goods and Petsmart.

The tenants, most of which are new to Edmond, are to be part of Legacy at Covell. The development at Covell Road and Interstate 35, started with construction of a Hilton Garden Inn and 20,000-square-foot conference center in 2016 and a Showbiz Cinemas that opened in 2018.
