This building has been purchased a few years ago by a compassionate ministry center called Love Link Ministries. They are currently in process of renovating the building and hope to be in the Nuway building by the end of this year. I know this because I am on staff at Love Link.

Thanks for your wonderful commentary on this location. It is great to see that there are others who can appreciate specific design motifs and architectural accents in a building in such a state as this. Thanks

This building is a beautiful example of Art-Deco Streamline moderne. It is perhaps the largest and most elegant representation of the style in downtown OKC. I am excited to know that there are plans to reinhabit the building. Hopefully OKC will participate in the refurbishment of the fabric of the building and its interior to the fabulous 20's and 30's era of its origination. The community would be well rewarded in investing in this landmark. What an addition such a beautiful and hisoric builidng would be to the new downtown area. In the multitude of brick its pristine white and black curved lines would certainly strike an impressive stance. Thank you for showcasing this building.

There was a truck driving around inside of the building! It was really strange. We bolted after the sighting.

Yeah, looks like the ravings of a madman to me. Very cool building though. I noticed you took a few pics through windows, had some trouble getting inside?

weird yes. I googled a lot of the phrases and the websites, and from all I can assume, is that some homeless mentally ill person had converted the walls into their own personal note pad… kind of strange. Do some google'ing…

All that scribbling on the walls was really weird! Could you determine what that was all about?
