Wonderful historic building. I really like the design. Thanks for sharing! By the way, the sky is very pretty also.
Did the computer take a degree in architecture?

This building caused quite a stir in 1966. It was the tallest building in town at the time and it was a cylinder shape. Tulsa was experiencing a bit of a "Modernist" movement at the time. The Oral Roberts campus had opened only a couple of years earlier. The Rose Bowl had some interesting shapes. Nicely captured.
We have a University Club here too, but it's a restaurant instead of a tower. That's a nice shot and I like the reflection in the water too!
Great sky and reflections!
