I honestly have no idea what universe you're living in cause it clearly ain't the one the rest of us are living in.
During this current building boom, Chicago will have built 6 new towers over 800', with a possible 7th hinging upon how 1000M plays out.
To put that into perspective:
1. That's more towers over 800' than Chicago has ever built in a single building boom in the city's entire history.
2. No US city (other than Chicago and new york) even has more than four 800+ footers to begin with!!!
But yes, let's all lament the death of Chicago's ability to build big. Soon, even Des Moines and Decatur will have bigger skylines.
