What Killed OKC's Downtown

In Wichita this weekend. From what little I've seen so far Wichita's
downtown kick's OKC's downtown's butt by far. The biggest thing I've
noticed is that downtown here is connected to the river directly, sits
along it and embraced it. So I think the decision decades ago to kill
the Oklahoma River by building Overholser dam and subsequent drastic
flood control of the river is what killed OKC's downtown.
