A drilling rig is up and running in the Brady Arts District on the  
site of the planned Park on Brady, boring 120 holes for 500-foot-deep  
geothermal wells that will heat and help cool the Tulsa Paper Co. and  
Hardesty Arts Center.

Construction of the geothermal field is funded by a $2.5 million

million from various other sources.
