Devon Energy to construct tallest building in OKC

Oklahoma City will soon have another skyscraper. It will be home to Devon Energy. The company plans to constuct the tallest building in downtown ~ 925 ft. The 21st tallest in the country. As several people have proudly told me, "taller than anything in Dallas."

This is an artist's rendering of the purposed building.
