In this New York Times article profiling Adrian Smith they mention a proposal for Sears Tower he's working on:

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/10/ar...se&oref=slogin

". . . a proposed retrofit of the Sears Tower, a Skidmore landmark just a few blocks from his office. Mr. Smith is investigating ways to reduce energy and water use with a new glass skin and new mechanical systems."

I've heard about this plan before from reliable sources that have visited Smith Gill. . . I'd just like to hear more about it in greater detail. . .
