    That's weird. I count 14
    There are actually two floors in the space in the very bottom of the tower... It only looks like one but there is a small second level.

    The concrete that is going down now is the roof of the 15th story, and the floor for the 16th.

    Is it possible to prepare the crack?
    Oh, I get it...go with the higher one regardless of the data simply because it makes for more hype...

    USGS is pretty good at this...I'll go with them

    Oooookay. This isn't a matter of experience and expertise, as the OGS is just as good at data analysis. The OGS simply uses a different method, which the USGS agrees both methods are valid depsite different results.

    Drove by tonight going to the game....man alive. This building is going to look amazing! Upon leaving downtown, I went through Deep Deuce and got on the interstate up north of there so I could see downtown....it looks really great at night. It's going to look even better with this tower.

    Yes there are about a dozen ways to rate earthquakes...I prefer using the USGS method because its applicable across all states and the world for that matter and makes comparisons from one region to the next very easy. OGS is not wrong....

    I would have thought it would have been used to build out the rotunda, but perhaps the crane used to dismantle the tower crane will be used for that?

    I have no clue. Makes me wonder if #4 will eventually be coming down.

    Thanks Bryan!!! Very cool and puts progress into perspective... Man, that building is going to be a monster.


    I was down at the construction site yesterday and was mesmurized by all the frantic activity. All the cams, photos and videos just don't do this project justice.

    How are they going to finish that side of the podium?

    Went up to Oklahoma City yesterday, funeral, but I noticed the view of the building from the Little Flowers Church (12th and S. Walker) is going to be fabulous when this is done! Sort of looks over the new highway at the skyline, I need to go back w/ a camera and see how that pans out.

    Looks like they set up another crane.

    I don't think crane 3 had the capacity to lift the rotunda steel at that range and its boom would have got in the way of the crawler crane and the boom of crane 1, so they just went ahead and took it down. That's my guess anyway.

    If they take down tower crane 1 this weekend, it would have me wondering why they bothered to put those two cranes up in the first place.

    They are dismantling the western-most tower crane right now.

    I wonder what they did with the concrete pump at the top of the building?
