Howdy, folks,
This is kinda off the wall, but are any of you from or familiar with
Tulsa, OK? I'm thinking about going to that area in the fall, and I'd
be interested to hear what "neat stuff" I should seek out.
On the Will Rogers Turnpike in Vinita, OK, SW of Tulsa, there's a rest
area restaurant that spans the highway.
I think it was originally franchised to the Dobbs House restaurant chain
and called the Glass House.
It's a fairly good, if slightly mundane, example of mid-twentieth
century Googie Architecture, a "high tech" American development from the
Streamline Moderne and Art Deco styles.
It's a McDonalds now.
