I had completely forgotten about that Bush Temple Tower! Just looked at the renderings again for it and it should turn out very sleek

The skyline is looking pretty good during the Bears games. OGP forming a nice wall and Vista/OBP standing tall on the far end.

I have a hard time getting the sizing right on these pictures from imgur. If someone can suggest a good ____ x ____ pixel combo for optimal sizing on this forum I would appreciate it.

Does it bother people in Chicago that Cleveland trolls have the Wikipedia entries for the Terminal Tower and the tallest buildings in the United States showing the Terminal Tower building as 771 feet, the "tip" height and not the architectural height?-thus moving several Chicago buildings(seven I believe) down the list?

if that actually bothers anyone, i would suggest they seek professional psychological assistance immediately.

Is there a thread for the 301-321 Wacker drive twins? I like that project and am curious about its status.
