  • Oklahoma Built: a Bibliography of Information Sources on Oklahoma’S Built Environment Susan Bobo Oklahoma State University, [email protected]
    Library Faculty Projects Architecture School Oklahoma State University Year Oklahoma built: a bibliography of information sources on Oklahoma’s built environment Susan Bobo Oklahoma State University, [email protected] This paper is posted at E-Archive@Oklahoma State University. http://e-archive.library.okstate.edu/arch/1 I N T R O D U C T I O N Welcome to Oklahoma Built: a compendium of published research, archival materials and links to organizations that highlight the richness and diversity of Oklahoma’s built environment. At its core is a bibliography of more than 600 entries – books, articles, internet links and more – on the people, places and buildings of architectural interest in our state. From sod houses and ‘shotguns’ to a unique skyscraper and the prairie palaces of oil tycoons; from Victorian to Art Deco to Mid-Century Modern, Oklahoma Built aims to cover it all. In the spring of 2006, anticipating an increase in patron requests due to the approaching Centennial, I set out to develop a comprehensive resource on Oklahoma’s built environment for the benefit of students, researchers and interested citizens alike. In addition to books and articles, I identified unpublished reports, video and film, organizations, image collections, and websites – in short, any relevant information sources on the topic. The scope of Oklahoma Built is broad - covering both the historic and the recent in equal measure. This balance is deliberate. The group Preservation Oklahoma ranks “Our Recent Past” as #2 on its annual list of Oklahoma’s most endangered public places. Oklahoma Built is also broadly defined - covering not only what is traditionally thought of as “Architecture with a capital A,” but the entire spectrum of the built environment as well.

Roth In 1958 Yanktonai Sioux painter Oscar Howe's (1915-1983) submission to the Annual National Indian Painting Competition at the Philbrook Museum ofArt was rejected for deviating too far from the established conventions of"traditional Indian painting." Howe's innovative use of style and his subsequent declarations against the premises ofhis rejection established the artist as a major figure in the development of Native American painting in the twentieth century. The existing literature on Howe is predominantly biographical and lacks contextual or stylistic analysis.

  • Airports Director Is Responsible for All Functions Related to the Operation and Management of Tulsa International Airport, R
    The Airport Tulsa International Airport (TUL) is a city-owned civil- military airport five miles northeast of downtown Tulsa, in Tulsa County, Oklahoma. It was named Tulsa Municipal Airport when the city acquired it in 1929. It got its present name in 1963. On January 21, 1928, 47 local business men signed the Stud Horse Note, agreeing to finance the construction of Tulsa’s first airport, and support its operation thereafter. These civic minded leaders comprised the airport’s first executive committee. Today, Tulsa Airports Improvement Trust (TAIT) administers, manages and operates Tulsa International Airport, R.L. Jones, Jr. Airport, and Okmulgee Regional Airport. TAIT’s mission is to provide a safe, efficient, self-supporting airport system for the citizens of the Tulsa metropolitan area and surrounding region. In January 2014, the Tulsa Airports Improvement Trust transitioned the operation of the city's airports from a city department to an independent authority structured operation. This move resulted in cost savings for TAIT but also provided streamlined operations enabling the airports to respond quickly to market changes and improve service. Tulsa International Airport covers 4,711 acres and has three paved runways: • Runway 18L/36R: 9,999 x 150 ft. Concrete • Runway 18R/36L: 6,101 x 150 ft. Asphalt • Runway 8/26: 7,376 x 150 ft. Concrete p a g e 2 The Airport (continued…) In 2010 the airport embarked on a major renovation of the 1960s era terminal. Both of the airport’s concourses underwent an extensive $50+million renovation, including major HVAC replacement along with more noticeable design changes.
