Wonder what is actually going to happen lol. 

There are naysayers out there, but I do recall in 1991 when I first started working downtown that the Mayo Hotel was deemed beyond repair and an implosion was in it's future.  We all see what it eventually became, so there is hope that a stripped and neglected building can be resurrected even after 10-20 years.

Oh, I am not saying it can't be saved, I really hope it will be, am however wondering if it will actually be sold this time.

I might be able to buy the building but I don't have the scratch to fix it.

From the "Lost Tulsa" facebook page  https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.544400445610336.1073741836.156939601023091&type=1

The historic 1927 Tulsa Club building went up for public auction on April 16, 2013, and was purchased by local businessman Josh Barrett for $460K.

It will be renovated as a mixed-use property, expected to be completed within 3 years.

Good luck to Josh!

As long as he doesn't have any interest in American Parking et al, I'm pleased with the change.

Would it matter?  Beyond a certain voyeuristic satisfaction of peering into previously unknown parts of his private life...and that is always fun!!

I don’t share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

It would be nice to know if someone like a Snyder rather than a Sager is getting the property.
