Wondering about building from back in 1979-81 the Western Company of North America, had corporate offices that faced I30 at about Pershing Ave.  I think the building is now recognized (according to Google Maps) as Plains Capital Bank at Western Place.

My ex and I each having worked for Western (and the great Eddie Chiles), had to opportunity to explore the basement that housed a small museum about geology and oil drilling.

My question is, is that museum still in the building?  If not, did it get moved to another public venue?

 

Thanks for any response.
