Mike from security called down from the second floor, "Ron! You gotta come see this!" In the ballroom, there was a model of our hotel constructed entirely from Legos. Fourteen stories were reduced down to about three feet in height, about five feet in width. Little figures, including Chewbacca were roaming the lobby, and a couple were having a drink in the bar. It was one of the coolest things I've ever seen.
It turns out it was part of a larger project to build downtown OKC out of legos, and it will be on display at a local mall starting in November. I can't wait.
Click on the link to see the renderings of the completed project. In the photo above, the hotel is the dark red building in the back center. The tall building on the left is still scheduled to be built, and will be the sixth tallest building west of the Mississippi River when it's completed.
