I think this is going to be demolished at some point in the future, it is now closed to foot traffic. The bridge was originally a Midland Valley RR bridge across the Arkansas River

Tulsa Fire Station 13. This was an active fire station from the 1930's until the mid 1960's when it was left for a more modern facility. For the next 50 years the building was used for a variety of things mostly as warehouse space with no or very little upkeep and maintenance. The building was purchased in 2019 and restored to it's original condition complete with a vintage Fire Truck in the single bay. The facility is now used as an event center
