Braniff Building

The Braniff Building is a historic 10-story office building in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. It was designed by Solomon Andrew Layton and built in 1923.[1] It was the first office for Braniff Airlines[2] and is located at 324 North Robinson Street. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP #80003281).

The Braniff Building was purchased by Kerr-McGee Oil Company in 1964 and signage for Braniff removed. It was damaged by the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in 1995.[2] It sat empty for 30 years before it was purchased and renovated by SandRidge Energy. The building sold for $15.9 million in 2016. It is home to restaurant Kitchen No. 324 and the law firm Crowe Dunlevy.[1]
