A California real-estate developer is proposing to build America's tallest tower in Oklahoma City.
The planned skyscraper would be 1,907 feet tall, trumping NYC's One World Trade Center at 1,776.
The building still needs to be greenlit by local officials before any construction could start.

Things are looking up — way up — for Oklahoma City.

A California real-estate development firm said it wants to build the tallest tower in the US on an L-shaped plot in the Sooner State capital that currently holds a mundane parking lot.
