Overlooking the Arkansas River in Tulsa, Oklahoma, is nearly 100 acres of a soon-to-be park that is the perfect mixture of urban and nature. A Gathering Place For Tulsa will be a central spot in the city for people to gather and enjoy a peaceful setting, nature trails, concerts, biking and so much more. The park will not only be for Tulsans to enjoy, but will draw in people from around the state and country. Check out these renderings and unique sections of the park, and make sure to check it out in 2017 upon completion.
A Gathering Place for Tulsa is the largest private gift to a public park in U.S. history. It is a project from the George Kaiser Family Foundation.
