Sorry, if OKC can't support a 40 story tower in the CBD, then this city isn't as hot as some are making it out to be.

Anyways, I didn't mean to sidetrack this thread. Hopefully something nice will be built there, even if it isn't tall, I'm betting it.
FYI Devon Tower is the tallest building of any metro under 2 million. To assume that it is our standard for every development is highly unrealistic.

I am very familiar with development in Nashville as it is a city that I am strongly considering relocating to. The development you are probably referencing (the 505) would not be anywhere close to as tall as Devon.

The point of urban development should never be to throw up as many glass phalluses as possible.
