Aviation authority concerns delay US tallest skyscraper plans.
In a letter addressed to the FAA, local airport director Jeff Mulder has expressed concern about the height and safety of the proposed Legends Tower supertall skyscraper in Oklahoma City.
Designed by architecture studio AO and developed by Matteson Capital, Legends Tower would be the tallest building in the United States at 581 metres (1,907 feet) high if completed, and is part of a mixed-use development set to be built in downtown Oklahoma City.
Mulder wrote in the letter that the height of the tower would “increase travel time” for passengers, cause “adverse changes” to departure schedules and “create the safety of flight issues” in the greater metropolitan area.
