TULSA, Okla. — The Reunion Building in Downtown Tulsa is undergoing a huge renovation project.
Rose Rock Development Group contracted Tulsa-based Buxton Electric to do the electrical overhaul of the 103-year-old building at 4th and Main St.
Part of bringing the building up to current electrical code, Buxton Electric was in charge of the planning and execution of putting a 200-kilowatt generator on the third floor.

According to Larry Buxton, owner of Buxton Electric, the 7,000-pound generator will serve as The Reunion Building’s primary power backup for fire suppression and critical systems.
Getting the giant generator over the ten-story building presented an interesting challenge Buxton’s team quickly solved.
Buxton Electric tapped Bennett Steel of Sapulpa to use its heavy crane to lift the generator.
Content Creators was contacted by Buxton to capture the generator lift from every angle.
The team at Content Creators deployed a two-person drone team, two camera operators and a still photographer to capture the lift.
The goal of the video from the beginning according to Buxton was to capture the years of relationships coming together to tackle the big generator lift.
The entire lift operation went flawlessly.
“To us it was just apart of our day. Part of our work week. Part of what we do,” said Buxton, owner of Buxton Electric.
