True, but with the right market a location/view like the spire site could render a building of huge scale profitable, perhaps not 600+ meters but maybe something in the 400 meter range, a structural element added to pass the Sears would let them be able to boast about having the tallest building in the city too. That would be a nice selling point.
But then again if BIG designs some pile of crap it's probably better it be shorter to not ruin beautiful Chicago. We shall see...
