Nobody ever looks there, someone just needs to make an okc thread in the main city compilations thread. I've probably looked at that section like 4 times because nobody ever looks at it.

No, there is a main thread for OKC already in the City Compilations section.

Maybe someone should consider making a Oklahoma City "MAPS 3 & related projects" thread in the General Developments section?

You can find more here










You can now see the where the steel is going to bolt in for the rotunda. The three boxes to the right of the circle are for trees


In case you forgot what it looks like


I would bet money this crawler is going to fly the steel for the rotunda

Just a couple pics I took after a show I had to work downtown on Sunday...

This picture is at EK Gaylord & Sheridan Avenue looking west toward the tower.


This picture is from SW 10th & Shields looking NNW toward the city from where the new I-40 will be going in. The angled bridge is where the westbound entry ramp from Shields to I-40 is being built.

First time in Oklahoma, pretty cool place, not at all what I was expecting. Snapped some pics of this awesome new tower being built while I was in OK city.

I think we took our pics around the same time. The cranes are virtually in the same position!

Yes, I was in town for a wedding. Truly a great place to visit, zero complaints (except my allergies acted up apparently due to a higher than normal level of ragweed in OK, but it was still great!)

The glass is looking really great! Love the angles of Devon, you get a different texture of the cladding depending on what angle you're viewing it at.

I'm not quite sure what it is, but to me the Devon building seems refreshing to me. I wish we had more buildings like this going up in the US.
