it's not coming back. and this thread is not about the old chicago spire project anyway.
it's about what comes next. (and it won't be the spire because it's still very dead, in case you haven't heard)
if you want to continue discussing the very, very dead chicago spire project, you can do so here: http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=153494 |
This made me really lol.
I do hope whatever is built has a spire part to it(as long as it is not just a damn stick)that would make it the tallest in Chicago. As long as the ROI is there, why not go for bragging rights as well?
