It was originally 9 stories, 4 more stories were added shortly after completion. It was supposed to complement (not compete visually with) the Philtower. A tunnel connects the two buildings. You can also find the WP initials. The zig zag designs of the glass and bronze insets above the entrances are very characteristic and the architecture shows the Art Deco style in Tulsa. It had naturalistic motifs outside and inside (flowers, vines, and animals). The penthouse was added in 1937 as Waite Phillips' primary residence. The rooms have hardwood paneled walls and ornate decorative Art Deco details. Besides it's awesome historical significance, it is where Mod's coffee and crepes is located as well as the awesome Deco District shops (Picklesworth, The Bookerie, Okie Crowe and Made).

I'm so glad the bridge is finally open. I forgot what the west side of the trail looked like and…read moreI'm thrilled to have more route options when I go for my morning jogs. There's a need for signage on the west side when entering the bridge for walkers/bikers lanes. It's unclear until you reach the top. There are benches throughout the bridge so you can rest and enjoy the view. The lighting at night is beautiful. The only thing I would change is the cobble stone lining up the east entrance to the bridge. It's not very friendly to skaters. I fell when on roller blades because my tires got caught on them. You can't try to skip over them either since they're so wide. I'm concerned people using canes might find them hard to navigate as well. Wish they were smoother!

This is where an amazing range of people, that are so different to one another in so many ways, come together to partake in the best equalizer: music. I went alone and was immediately welcomed by everyone there. People struck up conversations with me and naturally added me to their groups. Coming from New York City, I was moved by how kind everyone was to me and that awkward feeling you sometimes get as a solo traveler immediately disappeared. I was also shocked at how accessible this was. I know in NYC it would cost an arm and a leg to be close to this type of culture but this was free! And I believe that made all the difference in how rich this experience was, because everyone that cared about it could have access to it. It was the best possible example of good Tulsan people and I will never forget it. I hope it's there forever because it was so unique and so special. I was even feeling slightly emotional on my way out at how special my time there was and how beautiful the jam went. What a treasured experience!

No sign was posted on the doors so I have no idea why they were closed when they were supposed to be open. So one star. Then that same day, in the evening we were wanting to go listen to some live music and it was posted that they had both jazz and blues that night. We headed over and what a great time we had! It was basically an hour of different musicians jamming jazz then an hour of blues. It seemed to be all locals that knew each other. We stuck out like sore thumbs! But they were so friendly. Many many came over to introduce themselves. Daughter was asked to both get up and sing and also dance. She declined both but still so nice. Drinks are served but you only pay what you want. How crazy is that? We tried to be generous. Five stars for live music. That's how you end up with three stars.
