I'd like to see the Legends tower twice as tall as proposed lol

For the record I don't think anything from this will be built.

Why are you limiting us when we deserve something three times taller?

Space Elevator.

Somewhere around 36,000 kilometers tall. https://www.scientificamerican.com/a...han-you-think/

Lets build a 1776 meter tower. Lets finally adopt scientific units of measurement in style.

That would be 5826.772 feet which is probably beyond the limits of engineering, but we can do it!

Why not just build the Trantor Starbridge from Foundations?? Go big or go home. We DESERVE that!!

Forget about a supertall, everybody is doing that these days. They should go superdeep instead. I'm talking 1,907' straight down into the ground.

I can't imagine how many billions that would cost.

but imagine how safe it would be from tornados!

Now this is future thinking! I love it!

No no no no. 1776 yards. We beat the British in 1776, no need to follow them to the system they switched to.

let us not talk about what we can’t imagine but what we can imagine…we deserve it! Imagine that!

Have been at a conference of primarily real estate professionals this week and when I meet someone new and tell them I'm from Oklahoma almost invariably the first question I'm asked (unless it's someone from Seattle that wants to talk Thunder politics) is about the tower. They've almost all been disappointed at my (correct) cynicism but it is wild how many people know about it and that it's the first topic of conversation about OKC, at least among a group of people predisposed to know and care about it.

[HOT ROD]

it's really anybody - everyone just about knows about this project. And 'surprisingly', most I've encountered are impressed/interested in it being built.
