History Senior citizens living on the Westside of Bartlesville were fortunate to have two Older American Act Title III Congregate nutition sites from 1978 to 2008. The Westside site was located in the current building located at 500 S. Cass. This building was used as a school field house in the 1950s for the African American school, Douglass High School. In the 1990s, the seniors moved into the Westside Community Center, sharing the facility with other generations,. Although the new center was very nice, it was smaller than the need of multiple generations of families living on the Westside of Bartlesville. In 1998, the Westside Nutrition SIte was moved to the Eastside of Bartlesville, where it is now located in the Senior Housing Complex off Leisure Land.
