^^ I really like that picture! A renovated FNC would make it my favorite picture of the OKC skyline.

I loved this one from the Starlight Supper, as well. Just gorgeous.

When those trees mature, that picture will be most amazing!
Our skyline looks dense in that photo.
Definitely. The density is very noticeable from the west -- like in the picture -- & when you're downtown in the midst of it. It's just not as expansive & large as other cities around here.
I know I just paraphrased your statement Teo, but I didn't mean to. It's just simple to explain & you explained it pretty well.
Bricktown facebook page posted a cool photo from Stephen Post. Found a couple of them, actually.
Over Bricktown and the ballpark.

Fantastic photos!
Man, look at what a presence the Aloft Hotel makes on the urban landscape. Wow.
Yeah, that Aloft is a really great addition. I wish we could have seen the proposed Candy Lofts (or whatever it was called) developed on that parking lot. That would've been great too.
I like this recent shot from Will:

It makes me happy when I look at it. Probaby due to the bright sunshine, clear skies, and leafy trees.
But it's also a nice composition. The juxtaposition of the different styles of buildings from different eras works very well. It's very urban, and yet has a quiet, residential feel. Even the roses are blooming.
Nice view from overhead Deep Deuce looking south.

I think it's fairly recent. Certain progress markers, like Aloft or HGI are off screen, so that makes it harder to figure out. But the Holiday Inn Express lot is clear, so I'd say it was taken not too long ago.

Attachment 3848Quite a difference from 40 years ago. I found this while going through some old negatives. It was taken from approsimately SW 8th, atop the fill and looking north. I'm the center one of the three people at left; my wife took the picture in 1973.
Looks like that was about 4 years before the Biltmore went bye bye.
