Tulsa architectural history

 * List of Art Deco buildings in Tulsa, Oklahoma

Prior to 1900
The earliest known structures in the Tulsa area was the town built by the Lochapoka Creeks when they settled near what is now the intersection of 18th Street and Cincinnati Ave, underneath the still standing Council Oak Tree (Tulsa, Oklahoma). The town followed the traditional plan of a Creek village, with cermonial buildings surrounding a central square. Individual families' houses were behind these buildings. The Lochapakas arrived in Indina Territory with very little in the way of tools, so these initial structures would have been fairly crude. The entire town was burnt during the American Civil War, and the residents fled to Kansas under the leadership Opothle Yohola. After the war, the residents returned but rather than rebuilding the town as it had been, settled in scattered cabins and houses. The central square, however, remained an important cermonial site.
