That's back in the days when we were all of the Oklahoman's MAPS Forum together. I remember, it was me, you, Hot Rod, floater, Rob Anderson, and Keith. Hope I didn't leave anyone out. That was shortly after City Hall's talkback forum was shut down when Mark Gilmore stepped down as the city's webmaster. I remember, I was put down a lot at the time because I took Moshe Tal's side and was very anti-Randy Hogan. That was long before Lower Bricktown ever came about. People thought I was crazy at the time for opposing the selection of Randy Hogan.

It was actually the CEO of Phillips 66 at the time (that was before they merged) that expressed interest, but after he determined the size we were discussing, he bowed out. He used the excuse that they were giving a huge donation to the capitol dome. Luke Corbett was also interested, but didn't buy into the size of our plan. I actually had the form letters and drawings/renderings that I mailed out saved on my computer until just a few months ago, when I finally deleted all of it.

You came up with the idea of a big fountain on the top spraying out water. And we thought it could have a restaurant, observation deck, and Oklahoma museum at the top on two different levels. I can't remember what we had planned for the ground level. I was thinking it was either a garden, skate park, or pond. Can't remember.
Our thoughts at the time were at least 1000 feet in height.

Those were the days when we came up with all sorts of neat ideas. You remember Rob Anderson's Heartland Castle? And we proposed expanding the canal throughout the downtown area?

We were all dreamers at the time.
