Oklahoma Centennial Clock located in Broken Arrow's historic Katy Depot, on Main at the railroad tracks. Broken Arrow, established in 1902, is named after a Creek community from Alabama that moved to what is now Oklahoma. Originally this area's main business was agriculture. Current population is approximately 97,000, and it is a very large suburb of Tulsa.
This is one of over 100 clocks placed around the state to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Oklahoma's statehood. Some are purchased by cities, some by colleges and universities, others by private businesses.
