I have a video suggestion but idk if it is something you might do, you could talk about the potential growth this project could bring, it has secured funding, and it feels like it’s an 80% chance it gets built. Like it said in the video OKC can experience a ton of growth considering Dubai tripled in just 20 years, and OKC and Dubai are both big in the oil industry and both made a big tower. While you’re at it you could also show some of the projects currently being built in OKC to show its growth, there is the OKANA hotel, OAK OKC, The citizen OKC, the innovation hall, and more. Like I said idk if it’s a video you would do, but I would love to see a video where you can better explain the topic, and spread the idea of OKCs possible growth. Your video could give me pointers on how to make my videos better, I could see how you would do it and I could try and format it like you for my potential videos. If you do plan on doing it and you need some projects to talk about, I recently made a video talking about all of the current OKC mega projects. Which I think I did a better job presenting on.

How will this not be the same for OKC? Especially when it is currently a more popular and populated city than all those places I listed (before they got their tourist spot) Granted the impact won’t be as big as the burj, but it will still have a prominent part of impact. Also the city could definitely support this, they have over 10k people waiting to move into OKC apartments, this can fit 5-7k people, OKC is down 3500 hotel rooms, this has a lot of hotel rooms, OKC is a massive hit spot for jobs rn, ect.

In comparison Omaha is very light on highways, yet the city is still planning on removing one and converting to a boulevard. Also Omaha has way more walkable districts that flow into each other and are not isolated walkable islands like OKC. Currently there are a lot of tower cranes in downtown Omaha and all over the city. The current tower being built in downtown, was designed to be marginally taller then the current tallest because Omaha wants a natural skyline and not one that looks weird like the OKC of developers trying to compensate for something.

All of Texas is in tornado alley and it’s the second most populated state, Kansas City too, Chicago gets more tornados yearly than OKC, and it has a smaller city border as well as it’s the 3rd biggest city in the country. I don’t think it being in tornado alley matters that much

There isn’t any info on the developer’s political side. But the city is ran by republicans so the idea of increased taxes would be their idea not this buildings

@@TristonElliott are you talking about when I said the worlds tallest hill? It’s called cavanal hill, mount Scott is nowhere near cavanal hill It’s 1999ft which is 1ft away from being classified as a mountain, cavanal is in far east Oklahoma, it’s right next to the Arkansas border, mount Scott is right next to Lawton

It’s probably just because you grew up there or don’t look for stuff to do. I grew up in San Diego, and have been to LA many times, I find OKC more fun than both. It’s really just a sense of not looking for stuff to do. Because the only things I’ve done in SD is eat food and go to the zoo. Quite literally nothing but beaches and views. But I’m sure there is more if i were to actually look for it. I’ll admit LA if I were to actually look for stuff to do is way more fun than OKC, but I have had more fun in OKC than LA. And I’m dead serious when I say this San Diego literally has nothing to do, I’ll actually look for stuff to do and there is nothing, only beaches and views, and sometimes comic con.

@@issacoleyt7935 that’s the main place, but it’s not the only thing. The wheeler district I flooded with people on the weekends, frontier city brings about 1mil people a year, heck the biggest attraction in OKC isn’t even brick town it’s the bombing memorial. I could make paragraphs on what to do in the city but that would take way to long and you would most likely not read it due to how long it would be.

Oklahoma is great place to live and raise your family, but is it fun like Cali ? Of course not but it sure is waaay cheaper and less homeless and druggies ang gang violence. I mean for now that is. Born in raised Fresno, been in Tulsa Oklahoma since 2008. Back n forth visiting family in Sac and Fres and SD

@@MikeyLee559 I’d say OKC is definitely way more fun than San Diego, I’ve lived in San Diego most of my life, and there is literally nothing, but in OKC there is a lot. And Oklahoma is the future is going to become a really fun state with all of the things that are coming, like the developments from this tower, the American heartland theme park, ext.

@-OAK- nah nothing beats Westcoast Asian and Mexican food bro, also the party life is insane Tj literally like 20-30 minutes away. Nothing in OKC really unless u like to hunting or fishing in the woods bout hr away. Lol good in OKC is better then Tulsa maybe but till this day I've never had better Asian and Mexican food besides in Cali and in Tijuana street tacos or El Gordo tacos in SD.

@@MikeyLee559 what are you talking about “the only good stuff is fishing” Brick town, LA Ferris wheel, paseo district, wheeler district, boathouse district, automobile alley, arts district, midtown, park union, scissor tail park, way better restaurants than cali, aside from Mexican, (fight me on that if you want but it’s objectively true), frontier city, amazing museums like the first Americans, western and cowboy heritage, and the bombing memorial, I could still go on but it would take paragraphs, I’ll admit LA is definitely more fun, but OKC has so much more to do than San Diego, I’m not saying your not right about LA, but San Diego literally has nothing but views. I’ve lived here for 12 years out of my 15, I would know
