The Next Tallest Building in the US could be in… OKLAHOMA CITY!?!?
When you think about which cities have the tallest buildings in the United States, New York City and Chicago are probably the first that come to mind. Chicago was the birthplace of the skyscraper, and both cities boast the most skyscrapers in the country. They've also traded places as the home of the tallest building in the United States over the years. Currently, New York City holds that title with One World Trade Center, which stands at 1,776 feet (541 meters) tall, symbolizing the year of America’s Independence.
But, if new plans come to fruition, New York City might lose that title! And no, it’s not Chicago looking to reclaim it. The next tallest building in the US could be built in… OKLAHOMA CITY!?!?
That's right! If everything goes as planned, a new project in Oklahoma City called “Boardwalk at Bricktown” will boast the “Legends Tower”, which will become the tallest building in the United States. Now, I know what you're thinking: Why Oklahoma City? It's not known for skyscrapers, it has a very small skyline for a city of its size, and it's one of the least urban areas with a very low population density that is closer to a car-dependent suburb than a city. Well, let's dive into the plans and try to understand why the tallest building in the US might be built in one of the least dense cities in the country.

STUPID! Makes NO SENSE! Sure, people are gonna flock to OKC to see a stick protruding out of the ground. I doubt it! Also, Chicago and New York have the Great Lakes and the Ocean. What does OKC have? Fields and Cows. Quite the " Tourist Attraction" 😂😂😂😂😅

Termminal 5 expansion complete ATS extension to Rental Car/Multimodal Center complete Runway reconfiguration complete Sarellite concourse 1 is currently under construction and will connect to Terminal 1 when completed This will allow current Terminal 2 operations to move to the new concourse so Terminals 2 can be demolished and rebuilt as the Global Terminal A second satellite concourse is planned that can provide western access to the airport
As a pennsylvanian, i STILL don’t understand why Reading, Allentown, and Lancaster aren’t included with Philadelphia metro area. If it was extended just 20-25 miles further to Lancaster, Berks, and Lehigh counties, the MSA population would boost by nearly 2 million people. It would have more people than the DC, Atlanta, and Houston metros, jumping from 8th to 5th. I know plenty of people in those counties who commute to greater Philly for work.

The Sears Tower, Gateway Arch, and the Superdome in New Orleans are my Top 3 favorite structures of America.
what if developers see serious potential in okc like how dubai became to be👀
i started playing minecraft in 1.12.2 so i barely made the cutoff to see this screen in latest release
@@me-specifically Oh wow! Yeah if I remember correctly 1.13 is when they started changing it to match the theme of the updates.
One main problem - It's Ugly and bland !!! If they're going to do this, at least make it something interesting and nice to look at (Like the Burj Khalifa)
PS: And offering unparalleled views. Really ? Of what exactly ? 200 miles of FLAT ???
Saying OKC is trying to make a statement by building this building is ridiculous being as it wasn't and still isn't okc's idea to begin with. California based company came up with the idea. Actually people in Oklahoma think it's kind of ridiculous. But if California wants to build it here more power to them. Maybe they know something no one else does and huge thing are about to happen here. A building of that magnitude is one hell of a tourist attraction. That's not the only big thing being built here numerous big things are happening here. Even a theme park to rival Disney world. Look it up and see what all's being built in our little medium sized city it's insane. I think big things are getting ready to happen here. Actually the theme park is being built closer to Tulsa. But it's still Oklahoma
@@richardshipman7106 It’s great to see all the development taking place in OKC. It probably would’ve been better to say the developer wanted to make a statement rather than the city, but my overall point still remains.
It’s whole point is to bring a massive economic impact, it will skyrocket tourism and lead to a larger growth rate, if you look at Dubai before the burj it was almost exactly the same as OKC, no one thought the burj was a good idea, but the year it was completed, it skyrocket tourism and tripled its growth rate, the same thing is expected to happen to OKC, and there are so many reasons as to why that’s possible and why it’s overall a good idea. More skyscrapers and buildings will build next to it for easy recognition, like what happened in Dubai.
@@-OAK- That absolutely could happen and would be great if it did. That being said, I think OKC (and Dubai for that matter too) should make sure to keep their economies diversified because tourism isn’t always stable.
@@jonesrmj well OKC is one of the most improving cities in the country, and it was also voted the best managed city a while ago, now it’s like top 5. It was also ranked the 16th best city to live in. So I think it’s good on that stuff, especially when it ranks as one of the highest in infrastructure. Tourism will lead to more money to the city to fix its problems, as well as more growth, that’s why tourism is focused on a lot by cities.
What makes you think OKC’s economy is not already diversified? The economic breakdown of Oklahoma City as of 2024 highlights the city’s diversified economy, with significant contributions from several key sectors: 1. Aviation and Aerospace: The largest sector, accounting for around 15-18% of the local economy, driven by Tinker Air Force Base and private-sector firms. 2. Energy (Oil & Gas): While still important, the direct contribution of energy to the workforce is smaller than often perceived, representing 7-10%. The sector has significant indirect effects on industries like manufacturing and construction. 3. Healthcare and Biosciences: This fast-growing sector contributes 15-20%, reflecting the city’s investments in health services and biotechnology. 4. Manufacturing: Approximately 5% of the economy, manufacturing in Oklahoma City focuses on machinery, metals, and food products. 5. Government and Military: Due to its role as the state capital and presence of federal employers like Tinker AFB, this sector makes up around 10-12% of the economy. 6. Logistics and Distribution: With its central location in North America, logistics accounts for 5-7% of economic activity. 7. Retail, Tourism, and Hospitality: This sector represents about 5-7%, supported by tourism and local retail growth. These estimates provide a broad view of how different sectors contribute to Oklahoma City’s economy in 2024, emphasizing its transition from an energy-dominated economy to a more diverse industrial base.
@@se777en73120 I didn’t say it wasn’t diversified, I said that they need to make sure they keep it diversified.
Here in 2024 and it just says “save data” and “channels” on the Wii menu option
Saying that ego is the main reason for Legends is naïve. There are multiple developments underway in OKC and since MAPS started OKC has been developing at a pretty high pace. OKC is growing at twice the national average and there’s multiple mid rise mixed use developments currently in the works. The tower won’t be built until 50% of the smaller buildings are leased. By then, the plans for the tower will likely have changed. I just don’t understand the general hate towards the project. When you consider what’s currently being developed and planned, legends certainly isn’t pointless. In addition to some added tourism, the point of the project is to attract developers. This may seem unconventional to some, but you have to build buildings if you want more of them..
@@MrMannyfresh78 I think that my video on the project is pretty well balanced. Yes OKC is growing fast, and I’m happy to see more development there, but a skyscraper of this size simply doesn’t make economic or practical sense there. The developer himself even mentioned that Legends Tower is about making a statement. That’s basically the point I was trying to convey in my video, as mostly everything I said was objective. My video in no way was negative towards the project. In fact, I even said I would be happy to see it get built because it could maybe help the US get back into the skyscraper race, which would be great to see as a skyscraper enthusiast.
Hope it gets built! Only 34 years ago, Chicago and New York City had the most impressive skylines on earth. Now, many cities in Asia have skyscrapers and skylines that are more exceptional than those in The USA. This building would help redeem American architecture. Also, it would attract tourists to OKC. I would travel from Toronto to OKC to see it.
@@scottwood928 It definitely would be cool to see the US build something taller!
As an engineer, I can safely say that there is no practical reason for the Legends Tower to be built. Skyscrapers themselves are quite difficult to build and maintain, and their large size can lead to its residents being isolated. Skyscrapers only really make sense in places with a lack of space, which is the opposite problem Oklahoma city is dealing with. A tall building would certainly look cool, but once the novelty wears off a series of mid-rises would be much more practical for the people living there.
@@mickmaster1478 Agreed! Pretty much exactly what I talked about in the video. Thanks for watching!
most of these supertall skyscrapers are not practical. They are built to "look cool," and for bragging rights. In my opinion, it would be a good draw for Oklahoma City , which does not much else to offer.

I think the main reason is, which by the way you also mentioned, is the opposition from the people and several legal battles. Don't get me wrong, compared to my country the US judiciary system is strong and good but it seems like some entities misuse it to earn some extra bucks (under the table 😅)

Hey bro, you should give us an update on Doha's new revolutions on its airport operation system, they're expanding to ever bigger heights.
Thousands of aircraft flying in the world at any one time. 😊
You are missing a key component of a good airport: public transit. Large numbers of people need to be able to get to the airport efficiently. For a busy airport, that means fast and frequent trains so that the access roads aren't constantly clogged.
That is a very good point. This video was more focused on the design of the airport itself, but you are absolutely right!

San Antonio and Austin are going to merge into a single metro area, much like Dallas and Fort Worth did. It's difficult to forecast that because it hasn't happened just yet, but when it does that metro will be in the top 5 probably.
