Devon Energy Tower is a 925 foot, proposed skyscraper to be built in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Construction should begin in late 2009, and it is expected to be completed in 2012.[1]

Oklahoma City based Devon Energy plans to build a new headquarters building in Downtown Oklahoma City, to replace their existing headquarters building in Mid America Tower, also in downtown Oklahoma City, as well as space the company is leasing in several other downtown OKC towers.

The proposed skyscraper, approved by Oklahoma City, will reportedly be 925 feet and 54 stories tall, amassing 1.9 million square feet. It will be located at the intersection of Hudson Avenue and Sheridan Avenue, downtown Oklahoma City. The estimated cost is $750 million.[1]

Upon expected 2012 completion, the skyscraper will be the tallest in Oklahoma, surpassing BOK Tower in Tulsa, and the tallest west of Chicago (not including Houston, Los Angeles, and Seattle).
