Honestly, this is more of a competition between Nashville and Indy, no offense to OKC.
Having said that, if we're talking physical environment ONLY, I'd give the edge to Indy simply because the downtown gives off much more of a "big city" vibe, plus you start seeing the multi-family houses, apartment buildings, etc typical of Northeastern and Midwestern cities.
Indy I believe is the correct answer. You can see it trying to replicate Chicago. The old neighborhoods and old industrial areas accentuate that feeling
I think downtown Indy and its surrounding areas are pretty urban. I also find Meridian Street from downtown to 38th very urban too. A lot of apartments, businesses and Ivy Tech Community College is on it...
I wish circle center mall was doing better in Indianapolis. I would think Nashville is more urban is Indianapolis becoming more 9 to 5 with the dieing retail seen downtown. But I think Nashville is more urban downtown with a much better nightlife Indy is more 9 to 5 .

Dt malls in and of themselves r a dying breed but ccm holds its own. Still 800k visitors a month. Norseom cant support 3job indianapolis stores. With 2the already on the north side where its main customer base is , it wouldnt be able to sustain the dt store depending on the other sides of town who tend to be more frugal than northsiders.

Circle Centre isn't really doing badly. Nordstrom closed, but there's not many cities the size of Indy that can support two Nordstrom stores. I've heard from someone at Simon that the reason it's hard for Indy to land another anchor downtown is because the department stores think of its' downtown the same as cities like St. Louis and Cincinnati, which it was 20 years ago, but clearly isn't today. Indy honestly isn't 9 to 5 at all. I live downtown and saw numerous people walking around and eating at restaurants tonight and was out at 10:30 PM on a Sunday.
