^the 48th floor (and core from 50-51) is being poured today of 57. It will top out around the first week of July depending on weather.

Honestly, the Congress has some prime lots to build some HUGE towers. Only a matter of time if we are being real with ourselves. Same goes with those lots that the L cuts through in that area. Some skyline changers in 20 years will be there, no doubt about it

Sunrise, storm & sunset. Not best example, but recent discussion around color reflecting against the skyline can also be seen in the morning.

Man, that South Loop cluster is looking seriously mean.

Add in 1000M and GP2 and you arguably have the Midwest's 2nd largest skyline.
