strickn Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 http://blog.newsok.com/okccentral for renderings and information. The building was unveiled and approved this morning for a site that will try to embrace the downtown activity corridor and Myriad Gardens - not just rhetorically, but with public indoor facilities in a 400Ksf base.

LOL, didn't go for the tallest building in the state__________ Should be a great addition, but man will it stick out! 20th tallest building in the U.S. in OKC?? The next tallest building there is 36 stories. Anyway, I wonder when groundbreaking will be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trae Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 It's actually the 26th tallest if you count buildings under construction now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OkieEric Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 It's actually the 26th tallest if you count buildings under construction now.I chose to ignore that fact, lolThe bigger question is whether this thing will actually get built - hopefully oil will stay up for a while. Nice to see an OK company actually staying there instead of moving down here for once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trae Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 OKC vacancy will take a huge hit. Five buildings are being emptied out in Downtown because of this. And why no renderings?

There's also been a fair amount of discussion of them leasing out space in Five, even after the OKC tower was pitched.I like the OKC project though. If it gets built, I'd definitely have an excuse to see certain relatives more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't spent much time in OKC since I was a kid but was there back in May for a wedding and was in downtown for several days. I think Bricktown is overrated...however, they're definitely doing something right in the downtown area. It'll be interesting to see the "core to shore" deal come to life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
