View from the top, via Curbed.
Neat to see the Michigan Avenue streetwall from the middle, usually it's from either the north or south end. Kinda makes me want to put on a suit and monocle bluff my way into touring the penthouse unit! Also, time to move this one out of U/C? https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/Z0ph...m_iOS__53_.jpg |

That view is intoxicating. I second the move for a covert monocle and pipe trip to the top.

I'd rather a lot of river north get jumped and have height west and northwest of it.
we need a vibrant lowrise area downtown for clubs and restaurants. We don't need 20 more glass encased parking garage bases that are dead at 930 pm |

If that means new housing is much more expensive, so be it. If that means there is much less new development of any kind, so be it. But they are ruining parts of the city. |

Calling it right now... that picture will be unrecognizable in 25 years. All those lots between Wabash and Dearborn will have big towers by then |

^Kamin = a pompous, elitist clown. His job as a critic is obviously to complain about EVERYTHING and I just hate complainers. The laymen are grateful for this nice addition to the greatest streetwall in the world!
