Energy Tower at City Center was a skyscraper proposed for the city of Midland, Texas. The old Midland County courthouse was demolished to make way for the skyscraper.

History

[edit]

Energy Tower was planned to stand at 870 feet tall with 59 floors (6 floors below ground). Had it been built, the building would have been the sixth-tallest building in Texas.[1][2]

The developers canceled the pending purchase agreement for the old Midland County Courthouse property, where they planned to build the project on September 10, 2014.[3]
