Interesting.
What about Tulsa-Kansas City, Tulsa - St Louis,

Tulsa has been promised passenger rail... if we spend money on OKC first.
...but a passenger route between OKC and Tulsa is long overdue.
Of course, there was a planned Amtrak expansion to Tulsa-STL and Chicago but that probably died with DoGE.

Might be true - horrible corner. Fortunately, I don't have to see it as often as 15th and Harvard

That word is "QuikTrip" once the city rebuilds the intersection to their liking.

The 15th and Harvard corner is one of the worst in all of Tulsa outside of Big Al's.

I believe the new location will be a body shop specifically focusing on high performance vehicles.  I think they are going to expand their kitchen on 21st.   At least that was the plan initially.
