    First for the ignorant that don’t travel, Oklahoma is as modern, as anywhere else. They got rid of wagons and actually have the internet and cell service. Same Starbucks and chains as anywhere else. The tower, imo, would succeed and market to the millions that can live anywhere and work remotely. Not just current city natives. The views would be uninterrupted and incredible, even from the lower floors.

    Be sure to show correct images please!! Its okay if an image stays on the screen for more than a few seconds; there are an unnecessary amount of images of buildings in other cities, like NYC, Montréal and Shenzhen, China. Still a great video, just please be sure to find images that are of the cities/projects you are talking about.

    Personally, I just love that this is something that has been carried on and financially supported by the faithful. I'm not Catholic, and the Church certainly has some issues to work through, but it is heartening to see so many people from around the world still find some inspiration, joy, love, and faith in the original message of Jesus Christ, and they show it by building things of beauty. Far too much ugliness exists in the world today, far too much destruction. It is good to see things of beauty being built so we all can find inspiration, whether we're believers or not.

    Yes! Even more congestion in T.O.. If I made multiple millions per year, I suppose I could afford Limo service anywhere though. At 10-20 km/h downtown. If I were a multi-millionaire, I would not step foot on a TTC vehicle of any kind. If I had a million dollars, I'd buy you a green dress, but not a real green dress, that's cruel.

    Why don't you mention the "Fire Department" that got a call of a fire in the ceiling, showed up and couldn't find any sign of fire and left; 30 minutes later the building was engulfed in fire. Their efforts looked like a 3 Stooges movie, and were directly responsible for most of the loses; my cat can fight fires better than those guys.

    Gehry has done a tall residental tower in NYC, several years ago. Kindly update your facts.

    • @MegaBuilds5280
      @MegaBuilds5280 День назад

      Thank you for your comment. Frank Gehry did complete a residential tower in New York City several years ago. It's called 8 Spruce Street (formerly known as New York by Gehry or Beekman Tower), and it was completed in 2011. It stands at 870 feet (265 meters) tall and was the tallest residential tower in the Western Hemisphere at the time of its opening. The Forma project in Toronto marks Gehry's first residential tower in Canada, not his first overall.

    Look at the number of semi trucks in that footage. Railway tracks would knock a whole lot of traffic from the roads, and knowing that many are coming from NEC (north east corridor) and the growing megalopolis just south of Virginia, rail lines would take a lot of vehicles off the road also.

      You're absolutely right! Rail freight could be a game-changer for reducing road congestion and emissions in the region. The HRBT Expansion is a crucial step in addressing the immediate traffic issues, but exploring long-term solutions like rail freight is definitely worth considering. Thank you for your comment.

    I find it crazy and unacceptable dare I say un-american that a billionaire private citizen can own a border crossing such as this bridge, and worse is how he was pulling every trick imaginable to block the construction of the newer bridge in order to protect his monopoly. Zero regard for his country and fellow citizens, also shame on the U.S. government for not doing the bare minimum borders is literally their top 3 priority, somehow there always money to dump on the Pentagon so they can dump it on their contractors so the contractors can share the spoils with their shareholders who happens to be the politicians and the upper class. What a vicious never ending nightmare.

    To everyone who is concerned about Tornadoes, the chance of any Tornado, let alone an F5 hitting this tower is incredibly low. While the OKC area is tornado-prone, most tend to strike outside of the city and very few have actually hit downtown OKC. Also, Oklahoma may be historically famous for getting tornadoes but it’s actually been getting less tornadoes in recent years. States such as Iowa and Mississippi have been getting far more tornadoes.

    Simply photoshopping the bridge out of the pre-bridge image was an interesting choice. It's also probably noteworthy that "the guy who owns the bridge" died 4 years before this was produced. Another interesting note is that the bridge is being financed by the Canadian government though it is jointly owned by Canada and Michigan.
