Then and Now Images of Sapulpa...

Workers began tearing down the old YMCA in March 1934. This building had been built in 1905 during the boom times of the Frisco Railroad in Sapulpa. It was the first in Oklahoma and was the only one for several years. It was built to house Frisco workers during layovers and waiting for their next assignments.
  • (Then) The Frisco YMCA located near the Frisco tracks, corner of Hobson and Elm, circa 1905.
