And now we hold our breath.

That's pretty much all we can do following the closing of First National Center on Friday. The last tenants have moved out. Cafe 7 is set to reopen at Century Center. The Tinderbox Cigar store is set to reopen in the Oil & Gas Building. Nancy Farha's clothing shop is moving to northwest Oklahoma City.

And what is to become of Ken and Annie Huor's beloved Golden Dragon? Well, good grief, this is a popular restaurant that saw huge crowds on its final day last week. The Huors want to reopen downtown but nobody seems to be giving them a shot at doing so.

Such are the pains associated with this very critical moment in the life of the 85-year-old art deco landmark that for decades was the bedrock of downtown.
