Although the cancelation of very prominent Chicago super talls tends to be followed by a nationwide recession... so we shall see.

The Groundhog saw its shadow on this one.
It does suck, but I feel like this past cycle delivered some of the best new buildings in decades. We always want more, but I'm damn happy about where the city is now compared to the beginning of the cycle. We have had a huge amount of population growth in the city core, the West Loop establishing itself, St. Regis, OC, etc.

I guess I'm being glass half full here.
