The rolling stones at city hall see the dead floor and they want to paint it black. All of it. The walls, the core, the ceiling, slow pigeons — everything in the double-height 83rd floor will be black. And, by law, the space cannot be illuminated. So when Vista twinkles in the Chicago skyline at night, she will have a black choker across her neck.

wind tunnel tests show that the blow-through floor is going to need help from multiple TLSDs to keep Vista rock steady.
Multiple!!!
