It was also the first steel-reinforced concrete building in Oklahoma , because Colcord had seen the devastation to lesser buildings in San Francisco following the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and resulting fires . Originally designed with two wings , only the east wing and connecting elevator/stair segment were constructed . Architect William A. Wells was a protégé of Louis Sullivan , a founder of the Chicago School style of architecture . Sullivan designed the molds for the decorative terra cotta ornamentation on the first , second , and twelfth floors of the Colcord . The building survived Oklahoma City 's Urban Renewal efforts and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places . Developer Paul Coury , with the help of investors including Beck Design and Manhattan Construction , have transformed the office building into a boutique hotel adjacent to what will be the state 's tallest building , the new 51 story , 274 metres/900 feet Devon Tower . The Colcord Building is now owned by Devon Energy . Colcord also built the Commerce Exchange Building and the Biltmore Hotel
