"If I remember correctly, there is a 2,000 foot height limit for buildings in the U.S.
To have your spire on top, the actual building would have to be much shorter.
And I don't think any of us here on skyscraperpage want to see a shorter Chicago Spire".


postscript:
To clear things up.....I was initially responding to Zerton on the Chicago Spire thread.
He was advocating an earlier version of the Chicago Spire. The one with a spire on top.
I was just explaining to him that version was a MUCH shorter building (115 floors compared to 150 floors).

My post was moved here by a moderator.
