I can't wait to see it get finished, it will be a nice addition to the OKC skyline. If you get on Google Earth and zoom in on Downtown OKC and click on 3-D mode you can see the OKC skyline with Devon Tower already built. You can move all around downtown and see all the building in very nice detail like as if you are on a helicopter tour.

Very nice vid. The awesome thing about my condo is my view. I have a front row seat to this thing, and even still I seem to miss how far they can jump ahead with progress.

Hey that is great! If I was there I would set up my video camera on a tripod and take a 2 second video shot everyday. When the project is done you could play the video back and it would be a time laps of the tower going up. But them again I'm kind of a photo weinee LOL

It is going to be an amazing addition to downtown. I am shocked every time I drive downtown and see how quickly it's going up.

Tower cranes are now the tallest structures in Oklahoma City as construction continues on the $750 million, 50-story Devon Energy Center. The office tower is almost halfway to its ultimate height and stands at 23 floors or 340 feet high.
