The Westin at Tulsa Garden Square

The Westin at Tulsa Garden Square is a high-rise building proposed for construction in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The building was submitted to the Tulsa Development Authority on April 20, 2006,[1] and is planned to be constructed adjacent to the recently completed BOK Center in downtown Tulsa.[1] The proposed structure covered the city block bounded by Second to Third Streets and Cheyenne to Denver Avenues. The proposal also requested demolition of an apartment building and a small office building then on the property, and relocation of the Tulsa Transit Denver Avenue bus terminal.[3] If constructed, the Westin at Tulsa Garden Square would contain a 246-room Westin hotel, as well as 72 residential condominiums.[1] The 15-story[2] building would likely stand as the 2nd-tallest hotel in Tulsa upon completion, behind the Mayo Hotel.
