The Citizen Bank Tower is an architecturally significant building in Oklahoma City with its hexagonal plan, slender profile, unusual sunscreens and rigorously sculpted crown. It is eligible under Criterion C as the only example of Wrightian architecture as applied to a large office building in Oklahoma City. It was among the first tall office buildings to be erected outside of downtown Oklahoma City, setting the standard for other distinctive large freestanding suburban skyscrapers. Designed by Robert Roloff of Bozalis, Dickinson and Roloff of Oklahoma City, Roloff considered it a tribute to Frank Lloyd Wright and his Price Tower constructed in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. The building was constructed from 1965 to 1966 and must meet Criteria Consideration G for exceptional significance. The Citizens Bank Tower aptly meets this requirement as a highly distinctive building with its unusual design, its progressive structural elements, and its link to the Price Tower and its association with an architectural firm responsible for some of Oklahoma City's more distinctive early Modern buildings.
The Citizens Bank Tower merits recognition as an excellent local example of a Wrightian style office building in Oklahoma City. While the resource is less than fifty years old, it is an exceptional example of this style as the only example of Wrightian architecture as applied to commercial/skyscraper buildings in Oklahoma City. Within the context of local architecture, the Citizens Bank Tower was at the forefront of modern design and is therefore eligible under Criterion C as it retains sufficient integrity to merit recognition of its architectural significance. The Citizens Bank Tower is a distinctive building since its construction in 1965-66. Robert Roloff exhibited the relationship between the corporate identity and skyscrapers within his own expression of Modern architectural style.
