I was in Tulsa in late 2006 and had to find a address in North Tulsa around Admeral, I don't know what the other cross streets were it's been awhile- anyhow, this big wooden apartment complex on the corner there was really scary. In broad daylight kids and others were out all over the place, some climbing in & out of windows instead of using doors. I guess drug dealing had to have been going on too. I would not want to be near that place at night. I have never seen such a run-down shambled place with people still living in it. I believe the building started on Admeral and ran 1-2 blocks north. The building looked like it belonged in a  3rd world country though. Where was Tulsa's building inspector and code enforcer?

Even our boys in blue avoid some areas of town.  Not enough back-up.
