A skyscraper that could become the tallest in the US has been given the green light to be built to an 'unlimited' height' according to reports.
According to reports from Dezeen, the Oklahoma City Council has approved a rezoning application for Legends Tower, meaning it has no limitations on its height - a crucial hurdle it had faced before it got the go-ahead.
The skyscraper, which has been designed by California architecture studio AO, will become the tallest in the United States if completed.
The building forms part of the Boardwalk at Bricktown development, which will also include three smaller structures.
Legends Tower is planned to reach 1,907 feet high, with developer Matteson Capital having been permitted to build a tower without any height restrictions, according to the outlet.
The approval of the new zoning application removed height restrictions that were part of the original plan, which called for it to be built to 1,750 feet.
That would have meant it would be the US's second-tallest building after One World Trade which was built in Manhattan and measures 1,776 feet.
Initial height approvals for Legends Tower were received in April, and construction is now set to move ahead.
The project will include two apartment buildings as well as low-income housing, garages, and a Hyatt Dream Hotel with 480 rooms and 85 condos which will be 22 stories above parking and retail space.
While the height is no longer an issue, Legends Tower still faces one hurdle with regards to its digital signage, which is set to span four of its towers.
The Las-Vegas-style lighting has proved contentious in previous re-zoning presentations, according to the Oklahoman.
Mark Zitzow, director of urban planning at development consultant Johnson & Associates, told the outlet: "The signage language was removed and will be replaced with what will be the most detailed signing package that will be submitted that the city probably has ever seen.
"There are no billboards permitted, there are no accessory signs permitted. We will have to submit a sign package that will show every sign on the project, the LED lighting, and visuals on what the public view will be."
Construction on the development, which has a budget of $1.2 billion, was initially slated to begin this summer but has currently been pushed back to the fall instead.
