Is the east crane starting to come down? The top arm just shifted downward to a 45 degree angle, like the west crane before it started descending.

nevermind its back up

I don't think so. FWIW, I just noticed the West crane is almost gone. As of about 30 minutes ago, there was a crawler crane onsite, and boom of the west crane was just a few feet above the top of the crawler crane. They may have the boom disassembled by tomorrow morning.

Cold... windy... all week... All I wanna do after work is go straight home to the space heater.

Thanks worthy cook!

Looks like they are close to finishing the outside of the auditorium as well.

That's a pretty awesome shot.

100% impressed on how this tower turned out!Bravo Devon!!!!

Beautiful pictures!

The reflection of the sunset is unreal.

It's not real. This is where you end and the matrix begins...

Cannot wait for the LEDs.

Wow, in Kayne's first photo you can see they have almost all the glass up on the east triangle now. That was fast!

It seems they are really hustling to finish the crown and get the east crane down as well.

I noticed that too.

First building IT guys and security move in next week

Link?

A pic of the IT building would be great.

Can't keep quiet anymore! I am sooooo proud of a very close relative that has been a huge part of this from day one. He has endured such long days, weekends, and struggles and look at the end results! Just saying, so proud!

Cannot wait for the LEDs.


I'm too lazy to search for it, but has an illustration of what the LEDs will look like or where they are located on the structure been posted?

The crown and up the 3 indentions from the base to the top.

Hope this helps:

On second look at this, I notice where they show the LED at night but no attempt at the reflection from the sides of the indention. I think we'll get to see it soon enough.

Thanks! Can wait for the test run on that...

Nice shots! Decided to have some fun with Photoshop!

Wow! That looks so much better, thanks!

I know a lot of people say having power lines downtown adds character but after seeing the edited version of that picture I think it would look better without the power lines.

Nice shots! Decided to have some fun with Photoshop!
Swear...I thought about doing the same thing. In my opinion, overhead power, while not adding as much to costs, only adds clutter to the skyline/streetscape.

We all know where the lights will be...pretty sure they will not look as boring as they do in that GIF.

I'm going to order the camera I'm saving for next week....... I have to settle with my old standard 24-70mm zoom. I can still use the camcorder for zoom.

Thanks William!

the tv news view, love it!

I call it the AT&T view cause it looks like something out of one their "more bars in more places" commercials...

Someone should go grab pics in the morning while there is still residual snow left on the building. Could be a cool scene we're not used to seeing.

Saw a large yellow crawler crane at the site today. It must have been used to take the #2 crane away from the building.

Maybe the red warning lights on the west crown have been there a few days but I only noticed them tonight (2/13):

Maybe they just can't be seen during the day due to size, but I don't see them a couple days before (2/11):
http://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-Dxfaji_jEMM/TzoT05YK1YI/AAAAAAAAQkU/Uslku8aTARw/s640/106_5149.jpg

I noticed one of the lights tonight going south on 235 about 7pm.

sweet, Devon will (??) have red collision beacons. ..

I think more OKC skyscrapers need them, notably SandRidge, City Place, and Leadership Square. Even if you don't light up the building, those beacons on top really ADD significantly to the skyline at night. .. (See Seattle skyline if you dont believe me).

Imagine my surprise around 10 this AM to see an incredibly beautiful, otherworldly silver triangle shimmering suspended in mid-air and imbedded in the lifting fog over westbound I-40. The sunlight reflecting off the top of the east side of Devon's new building left me with an impression I'll not soon forget!! Wish I had had a camera and photographic talent.

I really wish I had something other than my phone, but here they are... It was much more spectacular in person, the wind was wrapping the fog around the building... It looked like the building was erased from the skyline! These were taken at Sheridan and Oklahoma in Bricktown looking West.

"A Diamond in the Rough"

Awesome Cooper!

That must have been taken yesterday (Tuesday)?


Have more you can share??

Awesome pictures today!!!! Big thanks everyone!!!

I like the aqua color of Devon in the picture that Cooper took.

It seems like in general the entire downtown area just has a more blue tint to it from that altitude.

Ever heard of photo editing?

Ever heard of photo editing?

I mean, last time Cooper posted a picture, he said that he really didn't alter the picture that much, and I tend to want to believe him.
