Memphis has 23 buildings over 200ft, of which 5 have been built in the last 35 years.
By comparison, the disparaged Phoenix has built 34 buildings over 200ft in the same timeframe (with only 9 of those outside of DT/Midtown).

While I'm sure your figures are accurate, I'm not quite getting the relevance of the comparison here though.
Phoenix is a MUCH bigger place than Tulsa or Memphis -- to the extent that I don't see how these in any way are members of a valid data set for comparison in this case. I mean... Phoenix is probably what?...
4+ times larger than Memphis or Tulsa.
And since when did 200ft become some sort of metric of significance around here?
