Denvers are on the shorter side overall because (in my opinion) there is just too much land and parking lots available to really justify 50+ story buildings... Sad, but true... but holy crap has Denver taken a huge urban jump just by adding infill and a few high-rises
And now that same company in OKC (Devon) has multiple empty floors. Not the best example to follow.

Outside of NYC and Chicago you have the condo boom in Miami which has added numerous highrises along with several in Austin and Seattle. I think Denver could support a few more Spires in the 30-40 story range in and around downtown.
