I'm glad you asked, its a mess on the inside. I'm a strong advocate of saving buildings, but this one will take a lot of work inside and out to restore.

I work over in Mapco Plaza, so I'm sharing this with all of my co-workers. Very cool.

Can we fly Oral back from CA and have him lay hands on it?

Creepy.  How long has the ALB been vacant now?

Just as soon as he wakes up from his dirt nap.

Wait, the power stops flowing after he kicks it?

Maybe we can fly the owner of the Tulsa Club building back from CA and get our hands on him then.

I believe Southwestern Bell (the second owner) abandoned the place in the 80's sometime. It hasnt been put to use since then.

That's swell.  What've you got to say about it?

How did anyone ever think that building was nice?  Even in its prime, it was butt ugly.  Between this, the towers out south, and the ORU campus in general, Oral may go down as having the worst taste of all time.

Relax, Tulsa Now could use a little Oral every now and then.  Keeps Tulsa back to our roots.

There are people who appreciate the architecture style.  It's not everyone's cup 'o tea for sure, though.  When I was looking at the retrospective photos of the construction that Fiend posted, I couldn't help but wonder what those neighbors in the craftsmen houses were thinking as this building was being finished out.  Quite a contrast to the 'hood.

Too bad there weren't any web forums so people could complain it. :P

There are a couple of beautiful houses to the West of it.  The back of the building is even uglier than the front and their backyards face that steaming pile.  The owners must've been so happy to have Oral as a neighbor.
