Chicago fits that mold.


Chicago built 9 800+ footers in the 20th century:
- 6 - pure office towers
- 2 - mixed use office/residential
- 0 - pure residential
- 1 - mixed use residential/hotel


Chicago has built 12 800+ footers in the 21st century:
- 2 - pure office towers
- 0 - mixed use office/residential
- 6 - pure residential
- 4 - mixed use residential/hotel


The office/residential mixed use tower model has largely been abandoned here it seems.
