The Flickr Lounge - Weekend Theme - Week 49 - Multiples - We got four different kinds of talmales for dinner, chicken, pork, green chili and cheese and a sweet corn tamale. The sweet corn one was so delicious it was the flat one and was more like a desert! We then stopped at the local El Supra grocery store and got some fresh green salsa, so good!
Built in 1903-1912, the initial Beaux Arts-style section of this building, which is the eastern wing of the present structure, was expanded during construction multiple times due to the significant growth of Oklahoma City, and was designed by James Knox Taylor. The building was later expanded with wings to the west in 1919, which became the base of a new Art Deco-style tower in 1932, as well as a western wing that matches the appearance of the original structure, which was added in 1932, both of which were overseen by James A. Wetmore and Louis A. Simon. The building is clad in stone with three-story wings on either side of a central ten-story tower, with the first three floors featuring engaged corinthian columns and pilasters, casement windows, arched bays at the ends of the building, a red terra cotta tile hipped roof, a stone balustrade around the perimeter of the third floor above a cornice with modillions and dentils, entrance bays with arched transoms, and Art Deco reliefs and motifs on the tower, which features double-hung windows and decorative metal spandrels. The building served as the city’s federal office building, post office, and courthouse until the William J. Holloway Courthouse was completed in 1961, and a new Post Office was built in the late 20th Century. The building also saw the departure of several federal offices in 1977, when the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building was built. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. The building today houses the United States Bankruptcy Court for Oklahoma City, as well as several federal government offices.
