Will This Oklahoma Tower Become the Tallest in the US?

- Legends Tower is a planned supertall located in Oaklahoma City, and if built as proposed would beat out One World Trade Center as the tallest building in the United States. Since I don't plan on modeling Oaklahoma City I thought I would show how the tower would look in the cities I do have.

What do you think of this skyscraper and do you think it will be built as planned taking the title of tallest in the US?
I love the name. If OKC can pull this off it would be the biggest underdog achievement. They will be Legends!!
I am proposing a project to my own city. It would be 550 feet tall and I am going before the city council on February 13th. If OKC is able to pull this off than any mid sized metro(500,000+) can easily pull of a 600+ foot building.
OKC is a way better choice because OkC has way less crime than every single larger city in the United States. Tax on the building would be way cheaper. The largest cities in the United States tax their people beyond comprehension . Oklahoma is way more affordable than other cities!!!Oklahoma has a lot of tornadoes but none in the downtown area. They are almost always at the SW edge of OKC /Moore area or NW of OKC.They usually track almost the same path. Over 130 years ago a huge tornado went the same path as the May 3,1999 f5.
The May 8,2003 f4, May 20, 2013 f5 , 2011 El Reno F5, 2013 (2.6 Mile wide) tornado were all several miles from the downtown area. They were nowhere near downtown OkC.
Oklahoma is a clean city with many new facilities, lower crime, lower cost of living, lower taxes and nicer people than other large cities.
@@davidsimon1324 OKC does not have less crime than "every single larger city in the US". Overall, OK has a higher crime rate per capita than the national average. For example, OKC has a homicide rate of 6.7/100k while NYC has a homicide rate of 3.4/100k. The top ten cities by Homicide rate are StL (69.4), Baltimore (51.1) New Orleans (40.6) Detroit (39.7) Cleveland (33.7) Las Vegas (31.4) Kansas City (31.2) Memphis (27.1) Newark (25.6) and Chicago (24). Tulsa is number 14 at (18.6).
I hope it gets built even if it looks out of place now. Maybe that will spur the city to densify its downtown and add a couple dozen more towers to the mix!
It looks cool in Chicago
NYC has nice flowers but Chicago is a better looking garden.
Looks incredible in Chicago vs all of the other cities shown. It fits in Chicago. Hope it's built in OKC and encourages Chicago to go ahead and build the first mega tower.
@@rchilde1 Sears Tower is a mega tall.
It will look completely ridiculous downtown Until the skyline gets built up, it is going to look like the city is giving the rest of the state the middle finger. Will they actually build it? I don't know. For people who think there is no demand for it -- that doesn't matter. Sounds strange, right? Back in the early 1980's, a Midwest city built a 60,000 seat dome stadium without having a football team. That gutsy move changed the city forever and put it on the map. I'm talking about Indianapolis. Before that stadium got built, Indy was a place you drove through to get somewhere better. It was Indianoplace. Naptown. OKC needs something to put it on the map. Something like this could. Something like this could jumpstart the market and turn this place into the next Austin. It is already one of the fastest growing cities in the country. Something like this could trigger an explosion of economic growth.
I think it looks way better in Chicago. It also looks like it could’ve been an alternate design for the 1WTC too.
I don’t think it’ll get built. I lived in Chicago and a building of that size makes sense; in Oklahoma City not so much. Downtown OKC has a small footprint and it will look comically out of place, plus the tornado alley and recent seismic activity makes it difficult and very expensive to build. Unlike NYC, Chicago or even Seattle, Oklahoma City doesn’t have the construction infrastructure for such a project. It’s a publicity stunt for the would be developer.
It looks kinda cool tbh
It looks cool and eccentric compared to the rest of Oklahoma City. I don't think it's gonna be built, but I really hope they do build it.
I really hope it is built in OKC being from there I always want to see my city grow and have great things. Especially a super tall would be amazing. I am not holding my breath though. At this point I just hope the first phases get built as proposed.
OKC should get a tower taller than the one in dubai next
I think this is great and I hope it gets built. It would put Oklahoma on the map
i think its much better to build this skyscraper in LA ,it would really fix its skyline cuz LA lacks a lot of supertall skyscrapers
U really got me thinking of how much better da loop would look with a +340m tower. Funny how u chose the Thompson Center too (come on Google make this).
It's a bit generic design wise but I love the concept and I really hope it gets built especially to show the coastal elites that yes other cities do exist and are just as ambitious and fast growing perhaps even more so at current real estate prices.. And you wonder why Los Angeles, New York, Chicago and San Francisco continue to bleed residents to the exurban belt around them as well as other cheaper metro markets... The value for $ proposition just isn't there...
Bro we need this in Chicago
Developer AO has already secured the $1.5 billion funding for the tower and complex. I`ll now be up to the OKC counsel to vote for it or not in June. I cannot see them voting against this. The construction will begin sometime in September.
I'm just worried about the economics
Even in NYC skyscrapers have ridiculously low density and zoning laws make it impossible to have anything other than offices
Can Oklahoma fare better?
It looks good but why don't they want it in Oklahoma?
Yeah, due to the high amounts of tornadoes over there
@@ima.get.tiv.2 Believe it or not, the OKC metro has gone a little longer than a decade without seeing a tornado of any size. The last tornado that has struck in the metro is the infamous El Reno monster in 2013, and that's 28 miles away. And with recent weather developments, Tornado Alley has shifted towards Mississippi, Tennessee, and Alabama.
@@ima.get.tiv.2 Skyscrapers can easily tank tornados, and they dont go near downtown
@tribaltreegoat Yeah, the skyscrapers itself can tank twisters with just glass damage, but everything inside the skyscraper will be blown out of the window and creates a wind tunnel effect, causing decorations, desks, and even people to be sucked out of the building
I wish they would make it in Chicago. But! If this gets built, then it could start another skyscraper boom in the US and maybe we might be the kings of skyscrapers once again! 🙏
It's a proposal, sure, but does it have solid funding lined up? Will the local zoning be changed to allow it? Before those happen it's just pie in the sky.
But I do like the design. Looks real good.
Interesting location in Chicago IMO would be on top of a re-built joint all through-running Union-Oglive station. 4ish blocks from Sears, but across the river.
For NYC... DT Brooklyn would make that a DT with two supertalls, quite a rare thing in the Americas. or Jersey City by the Grove Street PATH station?
funding is there for the phase i of the project (3 345' highrises and podium) and should start construction in short time this year. Legends tower will be phase 2 of this project, we'll have to see how phase i performs before they fund/announce if Legends will be built to vision or shorter/taller.
City council would approve this in a heartbeat if it was seriously proposed. The zoning has already been changed for the smaller towers that will actually get built.
Where is the demand?
Oklahoma City grew a little bit and the developers got trigger happy and proposed this. There is no demand for it.
Should have added the Oklahoma City skyline in the last five seconds of this video for laughs. I think it looks best in Chicago
But you did give me a laugh putting it in Dubai. Nothing against Dubai. But their skyline seems so false and fake compared to what’s around all the tall buildings. No infill.
Reminds me of Tribune Tower East- shouldn’t that begin construction this month? Any update on that?
Not cancelled but no news yet. Hopefully something soon.
If they're already building it, why not go to FAA limit of 2000 feet?
1907 is the year Oklahoma became a state.
2001 is the year of the 9/11 attack which should have been the height of the New ONE WTC. Now, it will be surpased by some random creaper in Oklahoma or whatever. What a shame.... 😔@@lewisgarrison860
What is 1788 feet in meters or the year LA was founded?
I thought it was cool until finding out the spire is the height and its in Oklahoma City lol.
The non-spire height is 1750' - the spire was added to get the 1907' number, the year OK became a state.
Por culpa de George w bush ya no están las torres gemelas
yes
Is this Google Earth?
No I modeled everything.
@@lewisgarrison860 very nice!
Molaría si lo hicieran
Around how tall is it?
1907 feet
I don’t care where it is development is development
With it being so ridiculously tall and most of Oklahoma City’s skyscrapers being around a height of less than 1,000 feet, it really doesn’t fit there.
It would fit perfectly in any city with skyscrapers well high above 1,000 feet, like New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, or Los Angeles. Hell, even in a city that’s not in the US, like Toronto (which would make it the tallest structure in the city, as well as all of Canada, surpassing the CN Tower)
I got two for LA even if I'm not there but they reach 500m
i doubt it will get built there OKC is a sad and small looking city i doubt the demand is there for it
The building is a 100% going to be built in Oklahoma the hight will just be based off demand
Even though the OKC metro is just 1.4million, it is growing at a pretty good pace. It isn't that sad. There are lots of things to do all over the city.
OKC is the 20th largest city it has more people than Boston
@@-OAK- cool? That is one of the 'technicalities' we use to make ourselves in OKC feel better. We are the 10th largest city by land area, about 6.8x larger than Boston (the city). So technically, OKC population is bigger than Boston considering actual city limits. Considering the metropolitan statistical area, Boston is over 3x bigger than OKC.
