Antenna?

Didn't know there was supposed to be one on top?

[catch22]

^^^^ Nevermind, I guess he was referring to the Trade Center.

Don't click on Discussion unless you want to be on the first page. Scroll past the wiki part

...It takes some getting used to.

Downtown OKC looks really dense from that angle

One World Trade Center is easily my favorite new building. Second is Devon Tower, but the WTC is just amazing.

What makes you like the WTC so much? Honestly I think from an architectual stand point, it's waaaaay to simple. The design is to basic. But I'm with ya on the Devon tower!

Geometrically, 1WTC is awesome. The way that the bases and the tops go from large to small as they go the length of the building kinda makes it look like it's a twisted building. Too bad the Spire never got off the ground in Chicago. That would have been an impressive architectural achievement.

The point of 1WTC was not to make it geometric. It's an inversion of itself. So if you took it and turned it upside down, it would be the same building. The "rotation" actually serves two purposes. 1 is to cut the wind some so it's not as big of a broad side given it's size. 2 is to give the appearance of the two towers in one. That's all from an interview with the architect.

I was soooooooo freakin pumped to see that, what I thought at the time was a for sure deal, start to take off. I was just in the sh*ts to see it was canceled. I think it truly would've been an iconic tower for the U.S.

That's a really cool angle, Sid! Love that you can't see any other skyscrapers

[OKCisOK4me]

Well, at least you got the Rock Island Plow building in the shot :-)

My family is talking about taking a tour of the Devon Tower, but we aren't too sure on who we should contact or where we should look. Can someone please point us in the right direction? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I don't think they offer a tour.

However, the rotunda and garden wing are open during the daytime as are the restaurant (Nebu) and coffee / gellato shop. You can't go up in the office tower unless you are going up to Vast on the 49th floor; you don't need reservations to go up there and have a drink and/or appetizer.

You can also walk through Devon to get to the Colcord Hotel next door. And the Devon patios and park are open to the public.

Has that changed, Pete? I had asked here before about needing reservations for the bar and was told that reservations were required.

Thank you for the reply.
