I can live with it I quess. Anything more than 20 stories on top of the non productive and not utilized parking podium is better than it being torn down and left as an empty plot for the next 20 years is better than the former.

I know us Chicagoans should have very high standards and all but ....


This will be viewed by millions over the many years on arch tours... so I hope for the best design but I would rather have it built out than torn down right now at this point... The foundation is substantial and should be used as much as possible, I would say the same thing for the Chicago Spire too at this point. Utilize what is built thus far and accept what is put in its place on present economics.
