WILLIAMS PRESIDENT AND CEO DOUBLES DOWN ON NATURAL GAS STRATEGY
Williams recently commemorated the 40th anniversary of the construction of the Williams Center , our company ’ s headquarters in Tulsa , Okla . Williams CEO John H . Williams ( left ) took a first look at a scale model for the tower with his nephew , Joe Williams , in 1973 . The original plans called for offices in two smaller towers – not one skyscraper . When John saw the model , he walked up to it and placed one tower atop the other , saying , “ That ’ s the way it ought to be .” His idea dramatically changed downtown Tulsa ’ s skyline . The 52-story , 667-feet-tall tower opened its doors Nov . 1 , 1976 . It ’ s Tulsa ’ s tallest skyscraper and a fundamental aspect of the city ’ s landscape .
