Did You Know...?

H.H. Brown, general manager of the Frisco, had written the city attorney and said he would be in town to discuss the possibilities of building a new viaduct and a subway at Thompson Ave. It was believed that a subway (underpass) would be relatively cheap due to the elevation of the tracks at this location. This would also relieve some of the traffic congestion on Dewey. Traffic was sometimes tied up for 15 to 20 minutes due to freight traffic on the railroad. This was never done, however. (Sapulpa Herald, Nov 24, 1920)
