I'm excited for new construction (as always) but I can't help feeling that congress should be a major thoroughfare with skyscrapers on either side, not a delineation between skyscrapers and a Dearborn Park wasteland. In Burnham's plan, this was supposed to be
the central street of Chicago land. Imagone how beautiful it would be for tourists to come in via the Kennedy, pass under the Post office, then the BOT building, then be on this long and wide boulevard, surrounded by skyscrapers that dead ends with Michigan, then Buckingham fountain and then the lake. Rant over...
Also, the Goodman Field House building reminds me of a poorly done knock off of Wang Shu's Ningbo Historic Museum.
