Price Tower Arts Center Bartlesville, OK

Posted byChristi IfferganPosted inOklahomaTags:, , ,

Today I had scheduled a tour of Price Tower, the only skyscraper designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. It was the perfect day because it was freezing outside!

Price Tower Arts Center completed in 1956

This 19 story building was designed with commercial, retail and residential spaces. Today the building still is multifunctional. It houses the Inn at Price Tower with beautiful modern hotel rooms. The building has art throughout beginning with a mural on the first floor.

Around the corner from the elevator I was surprised to see a Frederic Remington sculpture, Coming Through the Rye

Hi! I am Christi, a full-time RV traveller since August 2021. I have always loved to travel, but COVID-19 put a stop to that. I was fast approaching 50, my condo was being placed up for sale and I was ready for a major change. Originally from a tiny town in rural Southwest Virginia, I am the mother to one son and a rescue Shih Tzu, Cappy. For the last 20 years, I worked in public library systems around the Charlotte & Myrtle Beach areas. I met some amazing people and made great friends along the way. Follow along on my adventures as I travel the US. I hope that our paths will cross one day!
