Immediately what popped into my head as well.

Looks very promising... can't wait to get close ups of the crown, as well as the street front.

Depending on if the 1422 is the structure height or the roof height, this could actually surpass Sears in the 'official' sense because the 'claws' on top of this would count as being architectural.

The podium and plaza looks good, tower looks great. I love the golden materials on the east-west faces. Not just another boring blue box. Let’s hope they’ve got their financing.
