QuikTrip builds Gilcrease Museum sign in exchange for land
TULSA, Okla. -- QuikTrip Corp. plans to install a sign directing visitors to the Gilcrease Museum as part of a project to build a new-generation QuikTrip convenience store on Gilcrease Museum Road in Tulsa, Okla., reported The News On 6-TV.

The City of Tulsa owns the land where the sign will be built, but will give the land to the company in exchange for QT building the sign, said the report.

QuikTrip asked the city to transfer title of the land to the company to allow reconstruction of a QuikTrip at the site. The new store will replace an existing one nearby.

According [image-nocss] to the agreement with the city cited by the news outlet, QuikTrip will build and maintain the sign as long as the company has a store on the site. The agreement must be approved by the Tulsa city council and the mayor before it becomes final.

Tulsa's Gilcrease Museum is one of the country's best facilities for the preservation and study of American art and history. Its art collections draw thousands of visitors from around the world to the hills just northwest of downtown Tulsa for a glimpse into the past.

The Museum also offers an unparalleled collection of Native American art and artifacts, as well as historical manuscripts, documents and maps.

QuikTrip operates about 540 locations in 11 states. Its major markets are Atlanta; Dallas-Fort Worth; Kansas City; St. Louis; Tulsa; Des Moines, Iowa; Omaha, Neb.; and Phoenix. It also recently entered the Tucson, Ariz., market.
