In 1970, John M. Johansen gave Oklahoma City something truly radical. The Mummers Theater was an experiment in “Tinkertoy” architecture, a series of concrete pods held together by a web of industrial pipes. It was inspired by the internal logic of circuit boards, treating the movement of people like the flow of information. But in 2010, a catastrophic flood crippled the structure. Despite being a masterpiece of Brutalist design, it was demolished in 2014, leaving behind a silent ghost of a future that felt truly permanent. The Art: This is Machine-Age Brutalism. It’s about the beauty of the “stuff” that makes a building function—the pipes, the joints, and the raw concrete nodes. By looking at these ruins, we see a vision of a city that wasn’t afraid to look like a machine. Call to Action: An architectural masterpiece or an industrial nightmare? Should we have saved the Mummers Theater?

AO-028 — Manhattan Diorama OII-Ω | IRL: 🔴 Critical Status: Contained Oversight: NRD Recovered from a private modeling laboratory. Any manipulation of the model produces corresponding anomalies in the real world. During preliminary observation, minor adjustments caused unexpected structural changes. Further testing has been suspended #nullprotocol #analoghorror #arg #weirdcore #foundfootage

@seaarchitecture’s Exec Director Jim Bourey welcomed community members, & panelists— Snr. Project Manager Rebecca Brun of @soundtransit, Principal Johnathan Morley of @bergerpartnership, & Associate Director Miguel Maestas of @elcentrodelaraza, for an insightful discussion on transit-oriented development, and the future of mass transit in our region. As Seattle’s population and urban footprint continue to grow, talks like these explore how thoughtful planning can strengthen transportation networks while preserving neighborhood character, creating new green spaces, and expanding affordable housing opportunities. The evening featured panelist presentations followed by a moderated discussion and community Q&A-bringing designers, planners, and neighbors together to imagine a more connected and livable Seattle. #SeattleArchitecture #SoundTransit #Transit #Explore
