Jeez, thats fucking crazy. Its so huge... you guys need 4 or 5 more towers now of similar height to even out the skyline.

Absolutely. If this building were in a city populated with buildings of similar size/scale, it would be great, but unfortunately, in Oklahoma City, it sticks out like a sore thumb.

Still a great looking building, regardless. Congrats!

I think it would be just as good to have an increase of density of buildings of similar size to what was already there. I like the skyline, and I'm happy for OKC.

Hell, you can see the capitol dome on the right!

i love it but its worrying because that is tornado territory and sticking out so much like that -- it just makes me think of that fort worth tower.

I think it looks great. Congrats on the new building

Great building. Awkward skyline.
At least for now, I'm sure it'll get better going forward.

I said it once and I'll say it again: I wish this was in Phoenix! It's beautiful and big, everything a skyscraper should be.

This one of those pictures where you can say it looks better than renderings.

i love this tower more and more. every time i see a new angle i get impressed all over again. i hope that some day they will build up the area immediately surrounding this tower because it would sure make one hell of a focal point for Oklahoma city. four or five towers in the 5-7 hundred foot range would make this skyline rock and it would for sure be the best skyline for many miles.

Haven't been able to see the site since last June, and even then I was blown away. These photos show that OKC really does have something special in the skyline now, and the improvements to the Myriad Gardens just heighten that sense to me. Definitely thing good things are in store downtown...
