ABSTRACT
The present study explores intelligent urbanism, industrial preservation, retrofit technology, and adaptive reuse of the Sand Springs power plant in Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA. The power plant’s existing building system was reviewed, analyzed, and evaluated to rehabilitate structures into a new proposed occupancy type that integrates within the urban fabric. The ultimate goal of this study is to develop a restoration plan to transform the abandoned Sand Springs power plant into dynamic commercial and co-working spaces. The proposed methodology focuses on creating a functional, vibrant, and safe usable space while preserving the original structure and building envelope.
