OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -Less than two months before it is to be unveiled to Oklahoma City Thunder players and their fans, the Ford Center’s overhauled interior sits waiting like a present ready to be unwrapped.
Under thin layers of plastic wrap and paper are the new toys being bought with millions of dollars in tax money: rows of new leather seats near courtside, hardwood floors and stainless steel appliances in the suites, and tiles to line the walls of a lush courtside club.
Plenty of work remains. But members of a city committee got to see for the first time Tuesday the progress that has been made since the arena was closed after the NBA season ended in April.
Tom Anderson, the city’s special projects manager, says it’s fun to see the developments.
