Lol, shadows.

I'm sorry, but if you want some sort of scenic nature walk you aren't going to find it here. By the time the sun gets low enough in the sky for this building to cast shadows across the metra tracks it's already well past peak sun and those historic buildings you like so much have already eviscerated any trace of sunlight on Michigan Ave as they have on every sunny day for 150 years.

I hear Park Ridge has a really nice forest preserve, maybe you should move there. Oh wait, those pesky trees cast shadows on all that land and make it totally useless for recreation.

Honestly though, I think the bigger problem we have in this city is a lack of shade, not some 100' wide shadow like a half a mile away from what was the tallest building on earth for 25 years.
