Founded in 1918 by three Jewish brothers, the Oklahoma Tire and Supply Company quickly became a regional leader in the distribution of automotive products, offering tires, parts, and services to communities across the state. The warehouse, built in the 1920s in downtown Tulsa, was a central hub for the company’s expansive operations, contributing to the development of Oklahoma's industrial infrastructure.
Over the years, the warehouse became an iconic symbol of the state’s entrepreneurial spirit and growth during the automotive boom. Today, as Gradient, the space still stands as a testament to the legacy of innovation and resilience that helped shape Oklahoma’s business landscape.
