That place use to be party central back in the day.

Yes, attempting to create what was original.

Should be pretty cool.

They are well underway.

Things kinda paused for a long while but seemed to have picked back up again.

They are getting serious; also work has started on the mural for the Classen 'eyebrow'.

Public art install continues directly in front of this project.

Once they got going, they really have moved fast. I't going to be a great little in.
And the are is a GREAT complement. Kudos to whoever is funding the art, and to the artist.... it's fun and cool.

Saw workers painting the Classen street elevation yesterday. Our city's beautification efforts are on-going; so cool that it seems we are witnessing some new cosmetics daily.

Don't know if this is MAPS or Bonds related; however OKC's investments by the voters are paying off.

I agree. The public art in OKC is fantastic. Very pleased to see that.

The only public mural I don't care for is the cheesy Centennial train mural. So hokey. The cock ring is something else.

Seems like a cool chain that upcycles old motels like Classen Inn. Fun promo

They are deep into the renovation and have removed the cool old sign to restore.

This is going to be so cool. One of those hidden gems for visitors that really help people remember a place.

Especially since when I lived right down the street, the old place was a haven for drugs and prostitution.

I think about this post every time I drive past this place

I could actually see this being used as a setting for a Tarantino-type movie.

Really, really loving the look of this project. This + Bradford House are exactly the types of projects that can help OKC get good word-of-mouth in terms of being an interesting place to visit.
