I'm all for more highrise between 17th street and Lenox. Put a fork in midtown - it's getting overdeveloped.

Oh, I see... You want developers to bend to your portfolio of monopoly money and adhere to your lego-building-blocks theory to ensure they go belly up... Umm, NOT GONNA HAPPEN...
The market and current zoning will dictate what gets built... but, since we're dreaming - why not building a single row of skyscrapers all the way to Chattanooga. Then we'll be the envy of other world class cities
Just kidding, dragon man. Besides, none of this $hit is gonna get built - not now, not tomorrow, not next year, not ever. We might as well dream another dream. George Bush's monopoly money has stunted America's growth for the next decade.
Just a thought: How many supertalls have been built in the U.S.?
Now China and other foreign countries are kicking sand in our faces, and there's not a damn thing we can do about it but watch and be envious.
We might as well don a seersucker suit, patten leather shoes and a top hat while dancing a diddy as the rest of the developed world catapults itself ahead of these United States of Corruption.
