The owner of Bartlesville's Price Tower says the Frank Lloyd Wright landmark is not closing, yet, but it is a possibility.
 
Cynthia Blanchard spoke with Bartlesville Radio Friday afternoon. She says her ownership group is having to make some difficult decisions, including reducing operations and staff at the Price Tower, but they are hoping it is a temporary set-back in light of what she calls "attacks."
 
Blanchard confirmed Price Tower has sent notifications to tenants about the financial difficulties, in hopes that the existing tenants can find other arrangements if the tower has no choice but to close.
 
Blanchard says the Price Tower is not currently for sale, but she is open to offers.
 
Blanchard's responses came just under an hour after Bartlesville Radio published another story with Blanchard and her attorney about the Frank Lloyd Wright Conservancy possibly taking legal action about artifacts that have been sold from the Price Tower. You can see that story BY CLICKING HERE.
