I think John Hancock tower was already there before Sears though, wasn’t it? (I thought JH was built in the 60s). And the Standard Oil tower was built right around the same time as Sears, I think.
Just mentioning this because I don’t think Chicago was quite as tiny in comparison at the time. I like Devon, but it seems really out of place to me, for now at least. But I don’t think OKC will is building anything on its relative scale anytime soon, are they?
