Hopefully this new skyscraper in Oklahoma City Oklahoma is tornado proof like the new Mercy hospital in Joplin Missouri because tornadoes can hit big cities.

It will be. Devon Tower is already very tall (tallest building in the plains states and between Chicago and LA - excluding Texas), has handled tornadoes just fine (including the 2013 outbreak). All OKC tornadoes hit the suburbs around downtown but never in. High straight winds are MUCH more of a concern but like Chicago - OKC builds nicely for that.

Can’t wait! I hope they do build it, and make sure it’s tornado proof!

It will be. Tornadoes rarely if ever hit downtown, they mostly always hit the south suburbs, unfortunately but also fortunately.

Dream big, go for it!

Will it lean, like the one in SF?

It’s cheap too! Lots of people moving there.

@@BigCountryASF people think that ca is expensive, and it is, so are the houses, but only along the coast. 100 miles inland and houses are just as cheap as Oklahoma.

cant wait⚡️⚡️

Isn't the whole point of tall skyscrapers is due to the real estate demand of an area?

Cause thats whats nost important right bow, we ABSOLUTELY NEED this 🙄

OKC is a great location because the city is clean and has a much lower crime rate than every large city in the United States. Awesome!!!🙂

Not true. Do you watch the local OKC evening news? OKC has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to communities of any size. It’s in competition with Tulsa for grim stats. Check FBI crime statistics. In OKC it’s 37 crimes per 1000, that’s extremely high. In fact the state of OK is ranked 16th out of 50 in the highest violent crime rates.

why?

I hope it gets built

they shoulda built this in Ohio 🤣🤣

errrrrrrrrr what about the TORNADOS??????????????????? and the Earthquakes???????????????????????

No.

Mmmmm naaaa not Oklahoma city there nothing there only 1 tall building that's all city is boring like they say yes tornado alley move it to Austin or Houston...

What Oklahoma needs to worry about is the people who are homeless and hungry. Instead of worrying about building buildings that doesn't do nothing but line the pockets of the rich.

Stolen land.

All land is has changed hands many times throughout history, most of it conquered at one time or another. So pretty much all land is "stolen" by that criteria.

OKC was not stolen land. Around it, Yes; but OKC was historically never tribal land.
