I've often wondered, if someone in Tucson made a semi-realistic proposal for a new tallest in the state if that wouldn't get PHX developers off their butts to build over 500. I'm sure they'd hate the tallest being in Tucson. Or maybe they don't care about that kind of thing like we do at all...

most developers are either A. Dumb, B. Lazy or C. a combination of A and B.
