The Warehouse Market was built in 1929 as the Public Market. It housed the Warehouse Market from 1938 until the 1970s. It remained vacant until the mid-1990s when Home Depot bought the building. There were plans to demolish the building and build a new one. After much public outcry, the building's facade was saved and adapted for a small strip mall in front of the new Home Depot store. http://www.roadarch.com/deco/oktulsa.html
Tulsa boasts one of the nation's most extensive collections of Art Deco architecture. Our downtown Deco District is the natural place to begin feasting your eyes on the many representations of this distinctive style, the Philtower and Philcade buildings, the Atlas Life building, Tulsa Club, and Public Service Company of Oklahoma building, to name a few,but it is by no means the only place. Throughout the city you'll find Art Deco churches, schools, gas stations, dry cleaners, and residences designed by such masters as Bruce Goff, Francis Barry Byrne and Frank Lloyd Wright. On the south side of downtown stands one of the most celebrated examples of Tulsa's Art Deco treasures: Boston Avenue Methodist Church. The Tulsa Historical Society is a great source for locating all of these Art Deco masterpieces, which you can explore on your own or enjoy via a very affordable guided tour.
