In catch22 pictures, I like the new sculpture (frame 6) in the MBG of the three native americans shooting their arrows into the sky. It's a really nice sculpture addition to the gardens.
How do you make reservations at Vast?

WOW ! Awesome. Beyond first class. I've got reservations for Vast in January, can't wait.
Devon certainly built an amazing facility. Everything about it has been done to an extremely high standard. OKC is fortunate to have a corporate citizen like Devon.
Illy (the coffee shop) should be open any day. The interior is finished. I am not sure what the delay is. I hope it will be open next week. They added more seating with chairs that are a different color in front of the coffee shop this week. It will serve gelato too! Can't wait!
I noticed two windows still need to be put in. Is that the correct amount or are there still more?
From this afternoon, as requested.

When are they going to fill up the moat around the tower?
I really hope Devon doesn't end up with one or two LED fins always going out...
Remember, the official finish date isn't until October.
They moved in early but the October timeline has always been what they've pointed to for final completion and they are getting darn close.
All that is really left is the main water feature around the base of the tower, the park between it and the Colcord, the external LED lighting, a few floors at the very top and the restaurant and banquet space on the 49th & 50th floors. I'm sure all this will be done in the next two months.
From the start of demolition, it only took them 2.5 years to starting moving employees in and the total project will be about 3 years. To put that into perspective, Chesapeake takes almost that long to complete just ONE of their six-story campus buildings.
The speed and thoroughness of Devon complex has been amazing to watch. They paid for a world class architecture and construction team and it shows.
Is Illy (the coffee shop) open yet?
That second pic is awesome! I blew it up and probably stared at it for 5 minutes, lol.
Many more trees as you look north, but I agree that more are needed everywhere.
The whole Central Park, Core to Shore and river projects should make a big difference.
