Architectural DNA - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Depending on your perspective, you may find this curious work of art to be much ado about nothing, or a unique landmark worth taking a bit of a detour to see in person. It began its life as a spiral staircase in the historic Marion Hotel, now known as the Marion Apartments, across the street. It was suspended by cables above an alley next to the historic Buick Building; and because of its resemblance to a strand of DNA, it was christened Architectural DNA.
