[@Tulsa_Films]

What's your favorite part in this video? I liked the giant man and seeing downtown in the 60s

He's deplaning from a relatively new American Airlines Boeing 727-100 at the Tulsa airport.

Reminds me of my childhood, brings back many Tulsa memories.

I was born and raised in Tulsa as a child of the 1960s. And I spent so much time downtown since I lived just over the bridge in West Tulsa and could walk over the bridge to downtown. That is what I liked seeing the best and love seeing the Rialto and those old movie theaters I spent so much time in. I loved seeing this video.

Seeing the BA Expressway and 31st & Yale was so neat. I'd love to see more videos of Tulsa highways under construction. Thanks for these videos.

Yet another great video! I wish I could have spent time in Tulsa back then. Question: What is (was?) the tall round building shown very briefly? Round buildings were kinda a fad back then.

[@Tulsa_Films]

That is the University Club Tower which is the round yellow building near Riverside and Denver Ave.

Poor kid in the "Union district" at 1:41 fully exposed to the insecticide being sprayed by not wearing any breathing protection. I wonder if the insecticide was DDT.

[@JPGdesigngroup]

Wish there was still a Walgreens downtown.

[@Tulsa_Films]

Me too. That building at 4th and Main is still there though

So glad Tulsa was able to grow past the centralized "Downtown" phase of the city. I wish we'd wake up again and stop trying to redevelop that obsolete wasteland.

I tool around all these places today driving for work. Wild to see it back in the day, I recognize every location. There's a strip club on that entrance to the BA Expy. now lol. Imagine their surprise back then.
