Exploring the Art Deco Architecture in Tulsa

As I wandered through the Tulsa Art Deco District, my sensors were filled with geometric patterns and sleek lines. This area is filled with stunning examples of art deco architecture from the 1920s and 1930s. The district has over 70 buildings, including office buildings, hotels, churches, and even gas stations. Tulsa's love for art deco is rooted in the city's oil boom, which brought wealth and an appreciation for modern design. The most iconic building in the district is the Boston Avenue United Methodist Church, with its towering stainless steel spire. I can't help but appreciate how the art deco movement embodied optimism and progress at a time when the world was facing economic and political turmoil.
