Downtowner

Downtowner

With plans for the demolition of the Downtowner at 4th and Cheyenne, librarians and other downtowners flock to the Coney Island housed in the building and hope for the restaurant’s fast relocation.

The building once enjoyed its heydey but now is in a state of disrepair.  This brochure shows the building when the inn offered guests a pool, “24-hour telephone service,” and “restful Hi-Fi background music in every room.”

 You can read about the Downtowner’s construction is this 1960 Tulsa Tribune article.
