Highways should never built inside any city. Especially when it block the direct pedestrian access to a lake. It should be completely removed, and replaced by a 2+2 lane arterial road and tram tracks. A regional train line is also an option which runs to the end of the suburbs.

I am happy as clams the 78 and Lincoln yards are not being built. These corrupt projects do nothing but drain the city of tax dollars that would be spent elsewhere and these boondoggle will surely increase taxes and never live up to the hype. Cities need to move on from dystopian projects like these playgrounds for the elite that will do nothing for the average city resident and invest in neighborhoods that are already great but not gentrified. The 78 and Lincoln Yards are everything that is wrong with urban real estate these days and I would hope projects like these never get built anywhere in western world. They are a scam and should be codified and made illegal.

All this while gangs of youths descend upon certain parts of downtown wrecking havoc, but they're only kids looking something to do says the new useless mayor.

Use? Common sense? Technology? We need building, that's 2500ft tall. Our city is world. Renoun?bring back a title? And the Olympics 😊😊😊please 🙏

We need tallest tower in US again we got robbed bro

I build a ballpark every morning when I put on my boxers. Sadly, no one is flocking to visit. Anyway, there’s a reason the most beloved stadiums/ballparks are all ones which have unique designs that were shaped organically by their surroundings PS - I like your videos. Hopefully, you continue to produce them.

My favorite are gray stones. Off topic, but it’s crazy that coyotes live and thrive among these urban bungalow areas. Those things can survive anywhere.

If they do anything, they should create something like the High Line along the water, but unlike the HL which exploits a defunct elevated rail line, the long park/walkway should incorporate a slender, quiet rail system with low profile rail cars that plugs the gap in transportation along the lakefront and also allows tourists to easily access our museums, beaches, etc.

I love LSD’s narrow lanes. Let’s stop making everything wider for braindead drivers. We also don’t want a massively wide concrete eyesore fronting our beautiful skyline.

You should keep at it. New TH-camrs always go through a period of extremely slow growth and then suddenly you’ll begin growing by a thousand subscribers per week (assuming you’re uploading content regularly).

It’s blasphemy to even utter the name “Willis.” There’s no quicker way to anger Chicagoans as I’m sure you know. You’ve been warned!

1000M has about as much character as O’Hare Airport (I.E., none). It’s too bad the Spire was never built. Its design was very pretty. Instead of a new tallest building, let’s build a massive dome over the entire city and make a real life version of the Truman Show.

My great great grandmother single handedly dug the entire tunnel to 2-mile crib. She was paid 2 polishes with grilled onions per hour. She also invented the crib walk and made sure to keep it gangsta at all times.

I think Glencoe or some adjacent town has won the best tasting tap water award multiple times (however the hell that is judged or if it’s at all legit).

Lincoln Yards is too big for one developer. Let's admit that the city wasted the over $1 billion in TIF funding on the project.

Great Vid!!! Can you do an update on the Colorado River water height now?

As a Chicago native, I believe the city should deny a building permit for the proposed Tribune East tower. It is much too tall for its site near the Chicago River, and it will destroy the landmark vista of the Wrigley building and Tribune Tower.

1:30 - - no mention of Fordham tower?

I feel like LSD’s biggest issue (for the public) is the safety. The excessive water on the road, tight curves and fast moving traffic definitely makes it a little daunting to drive, I hope something can be done as far as making the road a little safer.

Chicago is losing population. This is interesting.

The tribune East tower resembles a ps5 😂

No AKA, it’s the Sears Tower

They need to keep as it is. Its a beautiful road and serves the community fine.

Chi Town baby ❤

Why build a tower 8ft shorter than the Sears Tower just built it taller than the Sears

I enjoy your videos buddy! Just keep being you and don’t resort to plagiarism like so many TH-camrs! Seriously man, thanks for the videos. Keep em coming

Please keep in mind that we don't have high speed rail system because the major airlines don't like competition. So, go figure. I fully agree that air travel should connect long distances and high speed rail to cover distances of 2-300 miles.

Sydney had the Sydney Opera House built as the iconic landmark of Sydney in 1973 during the golden age of observation towers. The iconics of New York City, the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building were built in 1886 and 1931. Both those structures have more than one observation deck real high up relative to their location to the ground of the structure. Furthermore, tall ferris wheels have become a trend since the London Eye was built as a modern icon of London in 1999. Examples include the Singapre Flyer in Singapore built in 2008, the High Roller in Las Vegas built in 2014, and the Seattle Great Wheel in Seattle built in 2012,

Who cares? They have already ruined it when the "S" curve was eliminated. Why turn the best feature of Chicago into a transit and bike lane?

Subjective propaganda....

Jerry better hurry up and pony up that money if he wants to build a new stadium on the 78 plot

@1:23 is so true, especially near Oak Street Beach AND ESPECIALLY if its wet outside.

My Chicago bungalow was built in 1922!

The 78 would be named so because there are 77 designated neighborhoods, not the wards (there are 50 wards), of Chicago.

With all the "teen" violence, car jackings, CTA violence, and major companies leaving....there will be no more large projects. This city will go the way of Detroit. Diversity is Chicago's strength!

Wow, brought back memories, my Granny had a bungalow with a finished basement. Been in many bungalows. One of my favs. Great vid

I never knew thats y that was there I always see them I did not know the purpose of them

I'm glad the Calatrava Spire stalled. I won't say what it looks like on a family website, but... yeah.

Who is going to pay to build these and who will occupy them and pay rent?

Can yall do a video on the "explosive growth of jacksonville florida 2014 to 2024. Please do

Monuments to income inequality.

Dude, I wish I would've found this channel sooner. You have very well made videos

Tribune East will be a never built

Future of Lake Shore Drive? Google Mogadishu.

I live off of Lakeshore Drive and it would be so cool if this could be turned into an urban Boulevard. But objectively this would screw over so many commuters. not to mention that the CTA doesn’t even run any trains that hug the lakefront and the buses have their own issues…

Several of the buildings referenced here will never be started or finished. The Chicago economy sucks. Think of the Chicago economy of the early 1980's.

spoken like a true liberal.."climate change is affecting this"
