I was born and raised in Tulsa as a child of the 1960s. And I spent so much time downtown since I lived just over the bridge in West Tulsa and could walk over the bridge to downtown. That is what I liked seeing the best and love seeing the Rialto and those old movie theaters I spent so much time in. I loved seeing this video.
Yet another great video! I wish I could have spent time in Tulsa back then. Question: What is (was?) the tall round building shown very briefly? Round buildings were kinda a fad back then.
I tool around all these places today driving for work. Wild to see it back in the day, I recognize every location. There's a strip club on that entrance to the BA Expy. now lol. Imagine their surprise back then.
So glad Tulsa was able to grow past the centralized "Downtown" phase of the city. I wish we'd wake up again and stop trying to redevelop that obsolete wasteland.
