Did Wright ever provide an estimate of how big the floor area of this tower would be. I'm curious if it would "have been" over 10 million sq. ft.*

Sears Tower has close to 4.5 millions sq. ft, yet Burj Dubai due to its slender design contains only about 3.5 millions sq. ft. despite its height.

Given that The Illinois looks just as slender as BD I'm curious how much space the tower would have contained.
