Save the State Fair Park Space Needle!

The Issue

The iconic Space Needle at the State Fair Park in Oklahoma City is coming down in a few months, according to local news sources.  The 330-foot-tall tower, completed in 1968, sits on a small, circular plot of land in the heart of the park and can be seen for miles in all directions.  To many, it is THE structure that identifies and defines the park.  While the tower hasn't been operational since a 2010 flood damaged the engine room, it is the last of the original mid-century modern elements of State Fair Park and deserves to be preserved as a local landmark.  Please sign this petition to let the owners of the State Fair Park know just how valuable this tower is to Oklahoma City's architectural landscape and to our collective history.
