Oklahoma City
The Newest Frontier
Oklahoma City is a surprise
to many visitors and
newcomers, with all the
friendliness of a small town
and the amenities of our
nation’s biggest cities. And
with over fifty attractions,
museums and other activities,
visitors will never be at a
loss for fun things to see
and do.
Oklahoma City was born
in a single day - April 22,
1889. Just a little over a
century ago, the site of
Oklahoma City was a grassand-timbered land of gently
rolling hills flattening out
into prairie in the west. In
just over 100 years, this
collection of tents grew to
a metropolitan city that
sprawls across 625 square
miles of America's heartland.
Its metro population numbers
over a million - a third of the
entire state’s population.

ABOUT OUR PAST…
Oklahoma’s written history
began in 1541 when
Spanish explorer Coronado
ventured through this area.
At that time, it was the home
of the Plains Indian tribes,
such as the Osage, Kiowa,
Apache and Comanche. In
1803, Oklahoma was sold
to the U.S. as part of the
Louisiana Purchase.
In the 1830s, the federal
government forced the Five
Civilized Tribes to leave
their homelands. These
tribes were living in the
southeastern part of the U.S.
They had to walk to
Oklahoma over a trail that
became known as the “Trail
of Tears.” Many men,
women and children died
during this long and treacherous trip. Once these people
settled here, Oklahoma
became Indian Territory.

Cowboys began their
history on the Texas plains.
Texas ranchers found they
had large supplies of beef
with no place to sell it. The
East Coast needed beef. To
meet that demand, Texas
ranchers had to move their
cattle to the closest railroads,
which were in Kansas. The
Chisholm Trail and other cattle
routes were made through
Oklahoma between 1866
and 1889. While traveling
through Oklahoma, the
ranchers realized the territory
was not only closer to the
railroads, but a good location
for raising cattle as well.
There was one parcel of
land that was never given
over to any Indian tribe the Unassigned Lands. In
the 1880s, many frontier
Americans wanted to move
into this land. Soon, landless
pioneers began slipping
over into this area without
authorization.
These
were the “Boomers,” who
were trying to force t h e
government into opening
the territory up to
homesteaders.
President Benjamin
Harrison signed legislation
that opened up the
Unassigned Lands and on
Did You Know?
The world’s first installed
parking meter was in
Oklahoma City, on July 16,
1935. Carl C. Magee, of
Oklahoma City, is generally
credited with originating the
parking meter. He filed for a
patent for a “coin controlled
parking meter” on May 13,
1935.
April 22, 1889, about
50,000
homesteaders
gathered at the boundaries.
At noon, the cannon
roared, and the hordes of
people streamed over the
line on wagons and buckboards, horseback, on foot
and even on bicycles into the
two million acres of land,
made their claims and,
overnight, Oklahoma City
grew out of the plains.
The settlers who entered
to claim land before the
official start of the land
run were called Sooners.
Hence the state’s nickname. On December 16,
1907, the Oklahoma
Territory and Indian Territory
joined, and Oklahoma
became the 46th state.
OKLAHOMA CITY TODAY
The pioneer zeal of those
early settlers is just as
evident in the Oklahoma
City of today. The western
spirit that helped found
Oklahoma City is apparent
everywhere
you
go.
Oklahomans are just as
likely to be wearing boots
and a cowboy hat as they
are a suit and tie.

like the National Cowboy
and Western Heritage
Museum, Remington Park
Race Track, Frontier City
Theme Park, and the Red
Earth Indian Center all
reflect the strong ties this
area has with its western
heritage.
In the early 1990s, the
leaders of Oklahoma City
were faced with a decision:
to compete or retreat. The
decision was made to
compete and the city
launched a visionary project one that would change the
face of Oklahoma City
forever. That plan was
Metropolitan Area Projects
(MAPS), an ambitious
program that is one of
the most aggressive and
successful public-private
partnerships ever undertaken
in the U.S. The current
amount being spent in this
public/private partnership
exceeds $3 billion.
As a result of that vision,
visitors can now enjoy a
multitude of new attractions
and
entertainment
options.
The NBA
Oklahoma City Thunder
attract record crowds with
its fast-paced, pulsepounding action in the
new Chesapeake Energy
Arena. The arena, a
20,000-seat entertainment
facility, has proven to be
an ideal location for
basketball, concerts and
events.
The 15,000-seat AT&T
Bricktown Ballpark is
home to the Oklahoma
City RedHawks, the
Houston Astros Triple A
affiliate, and has been
named one of the nation's
top two minor league
baseball facilities.
Our professional ice
hockey
team,
the
Oklahoma City Barons,
thrill sports fans in the
Cox Center.
The Bricktown Canal
extends
through
the
Bricktown entertainment district -- just east of downtown,
past the Ballpark to the
Oklahoma River. The river is
being transformed into a
seven-mile-long series of river
lakes bordered by landscaped
areas, trails and recreational
facilities.
Work on this $23 million
project will continue
through 2011. Shops,
restaurants and entertainment, hiking and biking
trails, and park areas are
part of this developing area.
A multi-million dollar
facelift and renovation of
the Cox Convention
Center has added new
meeting rooms and lobby
areas, along with a remodeled exterior and exhibit
space. The renovation of
the Civic Center Music
Hall, an historic art deco
building, is now the premier performing arts
venue in the Southwest.
A new trolley system, the
Oklahoma Spirit, covers a
three-mile area and loops
through downtown with an
additional segment of the
trolley system linking the
Meridian area hotels, state
fairgrounds an Stockyards
area with downtown and
Bricktown. The unique
streetcars offer continuous
service six days a week.
Oklahoma City isn't lacking
in entertainment options,
either. The Oklahoma City
Philharmonic Orchestra,
Ballet Oklahoma, and
Broadway shows at Lyric
Theatre and the Civic Center
are just the beginning.
Beautiful lakes, parks and
some of the nation's best
golf courses and tennis
facilities also await the outdoor enthusiast. Welcome
to the new Oklahoma City.

If you want to see a little of the real West of today, mosey on
down to Stockyards City, a few minutes west of downtown.
Home to the world’s largest stocker/feeder livestock market,
Stockyards City is the “genuine article” and a “must see” when
visiting Oklahoma City.
You won’t find any “My parents went to Stockyard City and all
I got was this lousy T-shirt” shirts or Elvis salt and pepper shakers but
you will leave knowing what a real steak tastes like, and that real
boots don’t come from Bloomingdale’s. Take time to browse the
western wear and specialty shops lining the streets, complete with
jeans (Wranglers is the brand of choice), hats, dusters, spurs and
belt buckles the size of hubcaps.
A “must see” while in the Stockyards is Oklahoma
Native Art and Jewelry. The New York Times recommends the
Gallery as a must see destination in the book “The New
York Times: 36 hours, 150 weekends in the USA and
Canada.”
Over the last 40 years exhibiting her works with fellow
artists throughout the country, Yolanda White Antelope
has gathered her fellow Native American and Western
Artists to bring the show home to Oklahoma. Along
with her pottery you will find over 68 featured artists
representing over 28 tribes from Oklahoma and the
Southwest.
Known as one of Oklahoma City's premier American
Indian galleries and shops, Oklahoma Native Art
& Jewelry features rare works of American
Indian artists and craftsmen. Authentic
American Indian and Western artworks including
sculpture, jewelry, Kachinas, Cherokee baskets,
dream catchers, pottery and paintings. The
store is Native American owned and operated
and also a working art gallery.
The gallery features works by Native American
Artists past and present, featuring museum quality

art including carvings by Creeping Bear
and fine art by Doc Tate Nevaquaya,

Particularly popular are the white pottery
pieces with horse hairs burned onto their
surfaces in Jackson Pollock-like swirling
patterns — a technique pioneered by
White Antelope. When those in the know

Antelope’s name is always at the top of
Native American jewelry. Exceptional
works are created by Mario Badillo, the
on-site jeweler, working in silver, gold,
North American turquoise, Australian
Gaspeite, white buffalo turquoise, and
other faceted stones. Mario has spent the
last 26 years featuring works in sculptured
stone and metal smithing throughout the
country. He has brought the concept of
seeing into the stone - complementing his
ability to unite the precious gemstones
with the creativity of forging metals - to
embrace the beauty of the natural stone to
complete his inspirations in his jewelry
designs. Mario creates many of the
traditional Native works in Silver and

Midtown is the district for
you. It's filled with OKC
staples and fan-following
favorites and a number of
waterholes along the way.
Many of the restaurants

OKLAHOMA CITY
ARTS DISTRICT
STOCKYARDS
DISTRICT
As the majestic Myriad
Botanical Gardens and the
multi-faceted Stage Center
- home of several theater
companies - remain major
anchor attractions for the
Arts District, several new
venues have recently
opened. The Civic Center
Music Hall reopened its
doors in November 2001,
presenting
a
classic
ambiance from stainless
steel accents to authentic art
If you want to see a little
of the real West of today,
mosey on down to
Stockyards City, a few
minutes west of downtown.
Home to the world’s largest
stocker/feeder livestock
market, Stockyards City is
the “genuine article” & "must
see." For over 80 years,
Stockyards City has continually offered the kind of
quality products and services
which are synonymous with
the heritage of the West. A
‘must do’ in the Stockyards
is Cattlemen’s Steakhouse,
Oklahoma’s oldest continually operating restaurant.
After a great steak, take
time to browse the western
wear and specialty shops
lining the streets, complete
with jeans (Wranglers is
the brand of choice), wide
selection of boots, hats,
dusters, spurs and belt
buckles the size of hubcaps. If
you can’t find what you
need off the shelf, there
deco chandeliers for all to
admire. The state-of-the art
facility
showcases
performances from ballet to
Broadway. The Oklahoma
City Museum of Art houses
the largest glass sculpture
by artist Dale Chihuly.
Standing nearly 55 feet tall
with over 2,400 pieces of
glass, the sculpture shines
as a beacon from the front
atrium of the museum. The
museum also showcases
numerous other exhibits as
well as an impressive classic
film library.
are highly skilled artisans
ready to custom make
whatever you need. You
won’t find any “My parents went to Stockyard
City and all I got was this
lousy T-shirt” shirts or
Elvis salt and pepper shakers, but you will leave
knowing what a real steak
tastes like, and that real
boots don’t come from
Bloomingdale’s.

Oklahoma City KEY • November 2014
V
isitors to Oklahoma City have the opportunity to
experience “My Generation: Young Chinese Artists,”
the first U.S. exhibition to focus solely on the post-Mao
generation of Chinese artists. “My Generation” offers a
surprising look at how China’s mega-development has
impacted its youth culture and spawned new art trends.
Museum visitors will discover an exciting global artistic
conversation in a breathtaking variety of media including
painting, photography, video, and installation. Young
Chinese artists are breaking out in ways that challenge
and defy the styles of an older generation of Chinese
artists already known in the West. Despite language barriers
and cultural differences, these artists work in a truly global
vocabulary which will be readily understood by American
audiences.
“My Generation: Young Chinese Artists” is an extended
look at a new generation of artists emerging in mainland
China since 2000–the year China opened its doors to
international artists and that Chinese artists began to
command attention on the world’s stage. The exhibition
examines contemporary China through the lens of five
themes: gender roles and intimate relationships, family
ties, the urbanized landscape, religion and reflections on
Buddhism, and politics and gestures of rebellion.
All 26 artists in this exhibition were born after 1976–the end
of the Cultural Revolution–and most are the products of
China’s one-child policy. Growing up in a country with a
high-powered market economy, they have been exposed
to global art movements through the internet and from
being educated in China’s art academies. They are ambitious,
determined and technically sophisticated with much to
say about their homeland–positive and negative–and they
deftly navigate around the restrictions of censorship and
cultural differences.
Accredited by the American Alliance of Museums, the
Oklahoma City Museum of Art presents exhibitions
drawn from throughout the world. The Museum's collection
covers a period of five centuries with highlights in
European and American art from the nineteenth and twentieth
centuries, a growing collection of contemporary art, and a
comprehensive collection of glass sculpture by Dale
Chihuly. The Museum boasts the region's premiere repertory
cinema, which screens the finest international, independent,
and classic films.
The Oklahoma City Museum of Art is located in the
heart of downtown Oklahoma City’s Arts District, at 415
Couch Drive. Visit the Museum online at okcmoa.com
or call 405-236-3100 for admission pricing and hours of
operation.

Oklahoma City KEY • November 2014
N
estled in the trees, The Park House, under the
ownership of local restaurateurs Peter and Sherree
Holloway, is a little hard to find– but definitely worth the
effort. The restaurant is located mid-block on Robinson
between Reno and Sheridan (directly between the Cox
Convention Center and Myriad Botanical Gardens).
The restaurant features expansive outdoor dining areas that
take full advantage of the lush gardens grounds. Park
House’s dining room is encased in glass and provides a
180-degree view of the gardens. The night-time view of the
tubular botanical gardens and its revolving lights is
breathtaking.
Local Chefs Jonathan Krell and Jeffrey Holloway have
tantalized the taste buds of locals, as well as many visitors to
the City. This family-friendly concept is in a setting that is
second to none. The menu begins with a host of appetizers
including a whimsical-yet-divine flight of deviled eggs. Each
egg is filled with different delights, including a house-cured
bacon with Danish blue cheese and a special-recipe pesto
and mascarpone. Additional appetizers include the tempting
chicken and waffle fry nachos, rillettes, grilled artichoke and
fried oysters.
For entrees, the Park House menu is designed to tempt the
taste buds, whether you try their rotisserie prime rib, filet
mignon, halibut fish and chips, cornbread crusted scallops,
molasses rotisserie duck or the pan-roasted salmon. Side
dishes don’t take second place here - options include blue
cheese and white cheddar mac, roasted seasonal vegetables,
lima bean and sweet corn succotash and more.
The desserts are more fun than spectacular, which families
will appreciate. The crowd-pleasing warm cookies and milk
hearken to the unadulterated joy of cookies fresh from
mom’s oven with cold milk served like a milkshake. The hot
fudge sundae to share is a trip back to old-fashioned ice
cream parlors.
The Holloway Restaurant Group also owns the nearby Ice
House - burgers, fries and shakes stand. The Ice House
serves Nic's Grill’s famous burgers – which has been
featured on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives! It is proclaimed by
many to be the best burger in OKC.
The Park House is open for lunch and dinner daily, 11
a.m. to 9 p.m., Sunday through Friday and 11 a.m. to 10
p.m. on Saturdays. Valet parking is offered in the evenings
for $10 per car. Reservations are suggested but not
required. Call 232.7275 for information on both The Park
House and Ice House.
A true urban pioneer - David Lack, a former wine
broker and distributor, had the vision to open
Broadway Wine Merchants near 8th and Broadway
in the historical Automobile Alley district. He
chose the location because it was convenient for
downtown workers and just a few blocks north of
downtown hotels – we like his location because
it’s just a few blocks from our offices.
As you walk through the door, the purple walls
and rows of wine racks confirm your arrival at a
store that is serious about their wine. A friendly
greeting from behind the counter accompanies
the intoxicatingly pleasant atmosphere. Broadway
Wine Merchants features an expansive wine
selection, spirits and beer and a knowledgeable
staff to back them up.
Whether you’re looking for a simple, inexpensive
chardonnay for the hotel room – or a bottle of
Dom Perignon for a celebration – they have it.
David also offers the traditional “liquor store”
selection of spirits and almost every beer available
in Oklahoma.
Broadway Wine Merchants is located at 824
North Broadway. The store is open Mon. thru
Sat. 10am to 9pm (state law). For information,
call 405-231-0031.

re you looking for the ultimate adrenaline rush? If
so, Pole Position Raceway in Oklahoma City is the
answer! The all-new state-of-the-art indoor karting center
is home to the fastest go karts in the area.
Pole Position Raceway has two full-size tracks that
allow you to speed up to 45 miles per hour with family
and friends, and do so with the comfort of heat and air
conditioning. These are not the karts you remember as
kids! These are real performance karts that are probably
the closest you will ever come to driving a real race car.
There’s also food, drinks, video games, pool tables, and
much more.
One of the unique qualities of Pole Position Raceway is
the SpeedSheet scoring system. Every racer receives a
copy of the results sheet that shows average lap time,
fastest lap time, overall position in the race, and how you
rank against everyone that’s ever spun laps here at Pole
Position Raceway.
“It’s an incredible scoring system,” says Oklahoma dirt
track legend Shane Carson. “It definitely adds to the whole
experience.” Pole Position Raceway is loaded with authentic
racing memorabilia and has more than a dozen flat screen
televisions that play the latest sporting events. Because the
karts use 20-horsepower electric motors, there are no toxic
fumes so you’re not gasping for fresh air.
It’s so cool that seven-time AMA Supercross Champion
Jeremy McGrath calls Pole Position Raceway “the ultimate
racing experience for family and friends!” If that’s not
enough, X-Games Freestyle Motocrosser Kenny Bartram
has said “I’ve been to a lot of kart tracks around the world
and there is nothing like Pole Position Raceway.” Former
Indy 500 racer Dominic Dobson says “I come to Pole
Position Raceway every chance I get and I always have a
lot of fun!”
Prices start at $9.95 per session and there are also three
different race packages (Pole Position Challenge, Grand
Prix and Super Pole) available for groups of eight or
more. It’s also an excellent place for birthday parties,
corporate team building events, product launches, bachelor
parties, church groups, sports teams and more.
Pole Position Raceway is located off I-44 on the corner
of N.W. 36th and May Ave. For more information call
405-942-2292 or visit www.racep2r.com.
