Why is some of those lights a bright hue of blue? Makes everything look messy

I understand that they will not have the lights refined until sometime in August. I'm sure it'll look better as they work through it.

I sense sarcasm...

[Spartan]

I''m not sure sure

[OKCisOK4me]

I''m not sure sure

That's only what I'm praying for cause the other reason would be sad...

I am not being sarcastic, I really want to know why the lights are really like that

When do they start taking reservations for dinner at Vast?

Likely not until 60 days before open at the earliest...Unless opening gets pushed back to December, in which case they will probably start taking reservations no later than October 1st (that's when Christmas Party/New Years Eve reservations generally start being made)

[Pete]

I'm sure Vast will be open October 1; I heard this directly from the people at Williams.

Devon has made every time goal thus far and the grand opening for the entire complex will be mid-October.

I stopped by the post office at 6th and Harvey after work yesterday about 4:30 pm. I walked out looking South, and WOW, what a great picture. An old Cathedral in the foreground, with the Devon Tower looking space age dominating the skyline in the back ground. Kind of breath taking !

[Pete]

The views up and down Harvey are really slick now, rivaling Robinson for best urban street scene in OKC.

Attended a wedding Saturday at the Gardens. Snapped this for those who haven't seen it yet.

I think one has to keep in mind that this looks a lot better from half a mile away than it does right beneath it.

just a note but the temp construction fence is now totally removed north of sheridan ... the Flint patio is close to opening (any day now) and the landscaping is wraping up around the devon building

WHEN will the windows ever get put in? Pete, I know you've thought it had to do with the permanent crane on top of the tower being used, but my goodness it's taking along time. Wish we knew what the hold-up is!

They just finished adding the last two windows in where the crane was attached on the east side, the only window that is left to be filled on the east side is the one that got broke, when they were lowering the crane, and I am sure that will be filled soon.

[soonerwilliam]

Thanks for the info. What about the windows where the construction elevator was attached. Have they been replaced yet?

[OKCisOK4me]

Most of them have. For some reason they've been replacing them from top to bottom and just a couple of levels are left.

[soonerwilliam]

Thanks. Glad to hear that. I was beginning to wonder when they would start replacing them.

Don't know if someone has already posted this or not. Here is a cool time lapse video of the Devon Tower being built.

[Teo9969]

Not sure if last night was the first night or what, but I was driving back from Dallas and passed by downtown at about 1:20AM and the tower was lit green from Top to Bottom and the Triangles were also lit green.

It was actually really bizarre because I had just driven by Bank of America in Dallas at like 10:30.

Definitely would love to see some pictures in a couple weeks when they have all the programming and lights figured out. From 235 I could clearly see that some of the lights on the triangle were not functioning like they should.

It was beautiful though, The green was easily noticeable from Moore.

[Dustin]

^ On the 10:00 news they showed a still of the tower all lit up and it was changing colors. The triangles were also lit as you mentioned! Cool sight!

I got a picture yesterday morning - about 5 AM - with the full green. Tried to email it to Pete, but his mailbox is full. Will upload to Flickr this weekend from computer
The effect was dramatic - could see it from I-40 at Sunnylane coming in.
