    Any project that intends to surpass the height of the Sears Tower needs to do it by a few hundred feet higher or more. It needs to be a bold design that makes a bold statement and be just as iconic as the Sears Tower has been for over fifty years. Anything less would be unworthy and not in the spirit of Chicago. Go big, go hard and go higher.

    Chicago is a beautiful city on the lake, with a very elegant skyline and one of the best in the world. I'm wishing this city can turn some of the negativity around because, I believe that's holding it back from its true potential. Best of luck Chicago.

      Chicago has so much potential to become almost as huge as New York skyline because it is the 7th city in the world with the most skyscrapers and 2nd most skyscrapers in North America but would be surpassed in a bit by Toronto

      The negativity largely revolves around violence. As it turns out, that's mostly rhetoric. Statistically, Cincinnati is more dangerous than Chicago.

    I've always hoped for Chicago to have a new modern era of forward thinking developmentment. Luxury residential highrises make me cringe so I'm less interested in those, but the projects proposed at the end offer so much potential to create real positive movement to the city and surrounding areas if done well.

    Why have the Tribune East Tower just eight feet shorter than the Willis? At that point just make it taller.

    • @Beitownit
      @Beitownit 12 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Eight feet might not seem like much relative to these heights, but on paper where the architectural layout is designed, eight feet is a lot of space and space that needs utility. I would like to see the next building that intends to surpass the height of the Sears Tower to do it by at least one hundred feet or higher. It needs to be a bold design that makes a statement and blends seamlessly into our skyline.

      Yeah agree. "Great cities" of the past, had some tall buildings, but also neighbourhoods and ground level restaurants and shopping. But we have seen that these low rise buildings and parking lots don't exist now. It's all skyscrapers either residential or commercial. Impossible to get around, and the soul of the city has vanished.
