1. Tulsa Commercial Airport Marker
This street was the original runway for the Tulsa Commercial Airport (subsequently named Cherokee Airpark). During the 1930's aviation in Tulsa included multiple airfields which were converted to residential neighborhoods as Tulsa grew. Tulsa Commercial Airport operated until the mid-1950's. The road you are viewing was the main runway, and a second runway extended northwest from this location.
