It is DEFINITELY amazing.

I would be curious to know what the success rate of our towers are in the boom era. That is -- when a given project makes it to the proposal stage, what are the chances it makes it in a relatively linear fashion through to completion? I think we have some healthy (and well earned) skepticism on this board, but I also feel like it's rare that a tower makes it to proposal stage and DOESN'T achieve lift off within the next year or so.

When I say that I'm thinking about the stuff we Forumers consider in planning/envisioning stage -- and from a probability standpoint what will reasonably make it to completion. I feel like a good chunk of what we know about WILL achieve lift off, eventually . . . and usually in a form that's consistent with original plans.
