Oklahoma City: Legends Tower, America's Future Tallest Skyscraper

[@StevenSmith-b2p]

I’m from OKC but have not lived in Oklahoma since the early 80s Now living in the Orlando Fl. area. I think it should be built it’s mind blowing to think it could happen. I’ve built for top 10 GC for years Can’t wait to see this happen. GO LEGANDS TOWER !!!!Steve Smith Orlando Florida.

Nice!! What did you build? Any ground up multi levels? And were you a superintendent?

[@SuperBighead1973]

I really hope this is fulfilled. My health has been deteriorating for the last few years, and I’m not sure how long I’ll be around, and I’d love to see this happen before I go to Heaven. ❤

[@ModernUrbanStructures]

Thank you for your touching comment and story!! I hope you will see its completion. stay strong 💙

[@scottwood928]

Build it ASAP! It will boost the tourism industry of OKC. And many skyscrapers in The USA, the birthplace of the skyscraper, are plain compared to newer ones in Asia. This one is spectacular.

[@ModernUrbanStructures]

Haha lets go!!! Yes those asia ones are so unique!! I went to Taiwan last year and even their standard apartments buildings are so unique and they are all different from each other!! OKC would def have more life and overall boost!!

[@eric_d4073]

This building is extremely bland and boring, a 3rd grader could have designed this ! If they insist on building it, the least they could do is design something interesting and kinda unique

[@scottwood928]

@@eric_d4073 how about you design a better one?

[@donovanburrell2354]

Man! I love this i live in Texas and i can’t wait to see this and if built you can see it for miles! I love skylines that you can see for miles!!!!

[@ModernUrbanStructures]

Haha nice!! Easier to visit from texas!! Which part of texas since texas is so huge?!

The people who say this is a bad idea don’t understand what they are talking about, OKC has always had one of the tallest skylines in the country, having one of the tallest buildings in the country in the early 1930s that was taller than LAs tallest and almost as tall as Chicago’s tallest, and now they have the 12th tallest by state, which is still in the top 70 tallest buildings in the country

[@ModernUrbanStructures]

Thank you for sharing that perspective! Oklahoma City has indeed a rich history of impressive architectural achievements, and it's great to see that legacy continue with projects like the Legends Tower. The city's skyline has long been a symbol of its ambition and growth, and adding another iconic structure only enhances that narrative. I appreciate your insight and passion for OKC's architectural heritage!

[@snuffedtorch3683]

I live in Moore. Get this tower built. This will be awesome.

[@ModernUrbanStructures]

Ooo i had to lookup your city!! Looks like a suburb close to OKC. Definitely would be nice for you!! And the new stadium too!!

[@snuffedtorch3683]

@@ModernUrbanStructures we’re excited to keep the Thunder through 2050 at least. This new expansion is exciting.

[@blast4me754]

They should make it look more iconic looking if they build it.

[@ModernUrbanStructures]

...aaaand not to mention a new $1B NBA arena to be built nearby.

[@ModernUrbanStructures]

Thank you for pointing that out! The addition of a new $1B NBA arena nearby will certainly add to the dynamic transformation of the area, creating a vibrant hub of activity. It’s exciting to think about how these projects will complement each other and further enhance the community. Appreciate you bringing this up and for engaging with the video! I will definitely do a video on this one!!

[@shaynecoventry8894]

Funding and everything is there. I watch them building all around the city everyday. They are preping for it. Which means they plan to do it. They say its a ten year project. To the people who keep saying it won't happen; its actually in the process BTW.

[@ModernUrbanStructures]

I know somebody from AO the architects, he says its happening!! Thanks for your support

[@christopherwheeler5404]

What a joke. A money losing joke. Oklahoma needs to invest in their education dept, not build an empty useless tower in the middle of tornado alley. OKC is not Dubai.

[@vtr279]

Don't you see how this will make this a tourism magnet for a probably unbelievable amount of visits/economic activities and retail(s)/breathtaking views from sky restaurant(s) ... A good investment and light exercise for our American architects, and a place to inspire future architects and designers and engineers to peruse their dreams and to always reach for the sky.. We were home to/the birthplace of the super structures, after all.. .

It Already got approved by the city same with zoning permit. Same with the new 1 billion dollar NBA stadium. Construction should commence pretty soon.

[@ModernUrbanStructures]

Love to see the LEGENDS TOWER Vs F5 tornado. So please hurry and build it before the plans change.

Stop being negative

[@ModernUrbanStructures]

Thank you for your enthusiasm! The Legends Tower is certainly designed with durability in mind, and it's exciting to imagine how it could withstand extreme conditions. Let’s hope the project moves forward smoothly so we can all see this architectural marvel come to life. Appreciate your support and interest in the video!

[@melroze]

That tower will never be built.

[@ModernUrbanStructures]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! While the future is always uncertain with large-scale projects, the ambition and vision behind the Legends Tower reflect the potential for transformative developments. Only time will tell, but it’s always interesting to see how these projects evolve. Appreciate you watching and engaging with the video!
