Development in OKC has significantly slowed following the oil slowdown, but there are a few new developments that has sprung up. I now live in Los Angeles, but I still try and keep with my home city's progress.

As for the grand showcase development -- BOK Tower

Thanks to Pete of OKCTalk for the most recent photo update

New residential mid-rise going in at 4th and EK Gaylord. So far it is being called Times Square OKC which I don't like :p

I'm personally not a huge fan of the design and certain don't like the single story pharmacy but whatevs. It should be a decent project I think and I hope it gets built.
