Since I haven't done it before I thought I would go to Cushing and take some pictures of it. The downtown looks a little sad and runned down, but interesting, such as the awesome murals. Don't miss them. They are very well done and beats what's in Stillwater and maybe a lot of other towns as well.
While in Cushing, I sadly noted the trees were still showing signs of damage from the ice storm late last year that missed Stillwater by a matter of miles. So let's get this photo journey started:
This sits on the corner outside Cushing city hall
This plaque also sits outside Cushing city hall. Sorry about the text cutoff.
Cushing Post Office
This building was built in 1917.
A look at more downtown buildings follows
First Christian Church
One movie theater is still open in Cushing.
This used be a hotel, now home for senior citizens.
This is the Cushing Community Theater. I've seen a great Karsoke show in here before.
This might be Cushing's oldest downtown building.
I noticed in Cushing that every downtown corner has the USA flag flying. Notice two of them below.
The shop on the right side houses Show 'n Tell Times, a free ad paper for the area. On the east side of this building
is a mural of buffalo, coming up soon, but not next.
A nice preview of more downtown murals to come.
An interesting view of downtown Cushing
Cushing City Hall
The old railroad station. The town is letting it go abandoned. What a pity!
A broadside look at the old train station. At least the windows are boarded up for some protection for the building.
Ahrberg Milling, one of the strongest signs of industry in down Cushing.
A new Wal-Mart super center just opened in Cushing. It's not as huge as the new one on W. 6th in Stillwater.
The next three pictures show what Cushing is world famous for--the oil tank farms.
And finally the murals in downtown Cushing.
This mural knocked me out when I first came upon it. It portrays downtown Cushing in a earlier era. Note the brick
street. It's covered over now.
