One step closer to canyonizing I90! I'm looking forward to this badboy going up, biggest one yet in Greektown

I would still assume this is a very good sign. But no bannanas till the drills drop.

(Oakbrook Terrace Tower: 418ft. Long ago surpassed by Skybridge, but these days it's even more clear the burbs are fading.) |
^^ Right On!

Narrowing that intersection is going to make that area suck way more around rush hour. Glad i dont to through there much anymore. Happy to see this one being built though. Now that Walgreens lot is just screaming for something....

and with the foundation permit in hand, if they've got the financing, why wouldn't they? |
They are just constructing a sidewalk cover in the street for the hell of it. Obviously not ramping up to build a skyscraper.
Temporary street coverings and the permits to close traffic lanes and sidewalks aren't cheap. They aren't going to do stuff like this unless they are planning on moving quickly. They will probably wait to close the lot until the day the equipment shows up since it's probably already a logistical nightmare for the hotel to be without this lot for 2+ years. |

Looks like someone's planning to be there for awhile.
