My World is in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Among other things, Tulsa is known as an Art Deco mecca. There are many different Art Deco buildings in Tulsa and one that I like very much is the Tulsa Fire Alarm building, built in 1934. You can find all the details here in an article by the Tulsa Preservation Commission.
The building features a double headed dragon design over the front door. I tried to show it in the second photograph.
Please check out other My World Tuesday photographs from all over the world.

Yogi: Welcome aboard with a neat post of the buildings from your world, nicely done.
Always good to see fellow Oklahomans out here in the blogworld. The amount of breathtaking Art Deco buildings we have in this state tends to boggle the minds of those with other ideas of Oklahoma. Thanks for sharing.

As an undergrad at TU I took “The quality of your indoor air” and we toured this building. The American Lung Association have so much work into this building. The history and architecture truly make it a Tulsa treasure.
Very cool building.
I had no idea that Tulsa was an art deco capital! Cool door.
Thanks for showing me your world and for stopping by my blog. I ddin’t know that Tulsa was the Art Deco capital. I’ll have to visit sometime.
Great pics Yogi! I may have to go see it. I don’t know if I have ever payed attention when I driven by there or not.
