Tulsa’s retro guide to cool July 12, 2006
Posted by Ron in History, Restaurants, Theaters.trackback
Urban Tulsa, which is that city’s alternative weekly, points out some of the best ways to keep cool in Oklahoma’s notorious summer heat with a 1950s and ’60s flair. Many of these escapes are on old Route 66.
For movie-watching, there is the circa 1951 Admiral Twin Drive-In and the restored, circa 1928 Circle Cinema. There are diners, such as Tally’s, the Metro Diner and the Blue Dome Diner. Writer Claudette Lancaster also provides a history of these types of places.
