Can someone site to me the source that quotes Tulsa as having the third largest collection of art deco buildings in the country? I noticed that someone had posted such a claim on Wikipedia. If it is not true, I want to make that alteration.
For all things Art Deco, I would talk to architect and TulsaNow board member, Rex Ball. He's also on the Tulsa Preservation Commission.
Here's a nice little blurb about Tulsa's Art Deco architecture on the Tulsa Library's website: http://www.tulsalibrary.org/research/artdeco/artdecointulsa.htm
I'm not sure what our exact ranking is, but offhand, I can't think of a city other than Miami that has more Art Deco buildings. Maybe Chicago or New York? Dunno. Ask Rex.
Thanks for the read. Neat read.
