Outside the large walls and heavy metal of Oneok Field, a smaller project replacing pieces of Tulsa's history is underway.
1921 Race Riot building plaques will be embedded in new sidewalks around the Drillers baseball stadium.
The bricks are part of a larger street scape project that contractors say will change the appearance of downtown Tulsa.
"You want the patrons around the ballpark to come to a facility that really looks good, that is appealing and warm, and one they feel safe in," said developer Bob Jack with Manhattan Construction.
At least 500 trees will line several blocks of Elgin and Archer streets.
Before that, crews will resurface sections of Greenwood street by removing the street's top surface, and replace it with asphalt.
By the time it's over engineers say the area will have a unique look with an updated feel.
Some buildings surrounding the stadium will include small grocery stores with residential units on top. Developers also plan dozens of benches and LED lights that will line the streets.
