Here, in Las Vegas, we have the 63-story Fontainebleau Tower, with construction being halted in 11/2008, and since then, it just sits there unfinished, 5 years later, with no resumption of further construction scheduled.
The owner says: Waiting for the economy to recover!

I'm just curious, if this project were sitting in Chicago, San Francisco, NYC, what would those cities be doing about it? They'd be powerless to do anything about it?
Do you know of any other examples of this in other cities in the country, unfinished skyscrapers/buildings sitting there for years, with no completion?
