TFA TOURS | CHERRY STREET: Trollies, Porch Swings, & Prohibition
June 6, 2026

$20 | $15 | Start Times from 8:30-9:00 AM

DESCRIPTION: Join us on a tour of Cherry Street’s history in Tulsa, from its beginnings as a simple country road marked with a sign reading “Tulsa, Two Miles” to a vibrant, walkable neighborhood rich with over 100 years of stories. Learn about the Creek allotment, the evolution of the community, and its unique local landmarks. And be sure not to miss the tale of Tulsa’s narrowest saloon, where you’ll have to be there to hear the full story!

Whether you’re an architecture aficionado or just curious about the beauty around you, this tour offers an engaging journey into design, history, and culture. You'll leave with a sharper eye and a deeper appreciation for Tulsa's architectural treasures!
