101 Park Avenue
A historic downtown building since 1938, 101 Park Avenue was previously known as the Skirvin Tower – a luxury addition to the Skirvin Hotel across the street. It quickly became the center of Oklahoma City with its Persian Room and with offices of downtown civic clubs, the Chamber of Commerce, the Men’s Dinner Club and the All Sports Association.
After it was remodeled in 1974 it became the glass-enclosed office building that it is today. Maintained and updated throughout the years to meet modern standards, 101 Park Avenue continues to house valuable Oklahoma City businesses, organizations and their offices.

The ‘89er Trail consists of 28 markers placed in significant historical locations corresponding to events that led to the founding of Oklahoma City. The Trail was created thanks to private donations to the ‘89er Trail Fund at the Oklahoma City Community Foundation.
This Trail paves a way for visitors and locals alike to discover OKC Downtown with a hint of history. If you find yourself walking around places of interest such as Bricktown, Myriad Gardens or City Hall, you may run into some of these historical markers. Cared for all year round, consisting of photographs, maps and transcripts, these markers offer everyone an insight into the past. The Editorial Advisory Board for the ‘89er Trail consists of Wiggin CEO Charles E. Wiggin, independent historian Michael J. Hightower, Bob Blackburn of the Oklahoma Historical Society, historian and writer Larry Johnson, and historian and writer Anne Hodges Morgan.

Venturing throughout this building you may encounter numerous pieces of work created by Jesus Moroles. Whether it is the marvelously carved and laid stone that is the south entrance floor, or the paintings displayed in the hallways, his artistic and architectural genius is ever-present in this structure.
From New Mexico to Italy and to Japan, Moroles’s 2,000+ works can be found all around the world and have been included in 300+ art exhibits. Domestically, Moroles is nationally recognized with medals and honors, and has contributed with some of the most monumental granite works in various parts of the United States.
As a teenager, Moroles ran a silkscreen business. Then after finishing an apprenticeship with sculptor Luis Jimenez, he traveled to work in quarries in Pietrasanta, Italy. A humble artist, Moroles once said that he did not feel he was gifted but rather that he was “a very hard worker”, according to the Moody Center for the Arts.
“Moroles lived like a force of nature, transforming stone into sculpture, forging beauty out of shapelessness.”
