Historic Walking Tour
This downtown Oklahoma City tour combines history and architecture with past tragedy and the promise of OKC’s bright future. We’ll explore a loop of sites, including:

• the Land Run that launched the city
• historic and haunted Skirvin Hotel
• entrance to Automobile Alley
• symbolic memorial garden from 1995 bombing
• notable utility and bank headquarters
• dazzling Deco lobby of First National

We start and end at The National to admire Oklahoma’s most stunning expression of Art Deco that puts Tulsa’s famous Deco architecture to shame. (Just don’t tell ’em we said that.)
