Architect Cesar Pelli Visits BOK Center

That is one ugly building in my opinion. As for being to other venues. I have been to Arrowhead stadium, ample parking & a full house. Cowboys stadium, still had decent parking but has to walk a mile. I did go to the Edward Jones dome in St. Louis & parking was all but non-exsistant. We parked free 10 miles away & rode the train. All was good until we left, lines for the train were about a mile long. Some towns address the parking for event centers & I will go to those, others like Tulsa do not & I will not. You have to remember something, business goes where it is wanted, but stays where it is appreciated. If Tulsa addresses the parking issues I believe it will be a successful arena even if it is as ugly as... well, you get the idea

There will be no renaissance of downtown Tulsa. They built a white elephant. Who wants to go to crime ridden downtown? Where do you park? Should have been built with parking all around. Should have been built in the suburbs not down town.

"crime ridden downtown"? What do you base that on? Compared to the rest of the city, downtown is relatively crime free. Obviously, you dont know what you're talking about.

I agree that an Art Deco theme would have been more in keeping but go figure. What else would have worked with Tulsa's art forms , the prayinig hands and the golden driller?

a praying golden driller
