Mid-Continent Tower

As I grew up in Tulsa, anytime we went on road trips we would drive through downtown. I always would ask and look at the tall building with the green rooftop. The rooftop also held an abnormal stair step at the top that always captured my attention. Eventually, my dad had the opportunity to visit. The attention to detail just within the lobby makes it a shame that the tower is only used for business rather than an attraction. The Mid-Continent Tower was completed in 1984 and is an impressive 36 stories tall. It was originally the Cosden building, which was only 16 stories tall and built in 1918. Once the conversion was made, the tower became a staple of the Downtown Tulsa Skyline.
