I hate to say it, but let this fail. We have a ton of cool developments going on right now. Maybe even join the nimbys if it will push the developer out.
We are a world class city.

Yes I agree, never thought I would say it, but it may be best to let this Related project fail as it is now proposed.. Also I wonder if Daley or Rahm was in charge as Mayor would 400 N Lakeshore Drive be more grand than this latest design..or does a Mayor have much input in what is developed. It may be possible that some of us are over-reacting but disappointment will do that. Will be very interesting to see how this unfolds, something tells me this is still a work in progress.
