Lol, the balls on WLCO. The developers already reduced the height by almost 200 feet, and now they want it reduced by another 300 feet? Who do these people think they are? Their royal highnesses can all go back to Naperville where tall and troublesome developments are nowhere to be seen.

And frankly, these people don't even know what they are arguing about. It appears that they think that the height of tall buildings is what will cause traffic and parking problems, as opposed to the unit count. If Related dropped the height of the tower to their ridiculous demand of 200' but kept the unit count the same (as they did when the 570' version of this tower got a haircut), would they really be appeased? Are they that dense? (Rhetorical question, we all know the answer)
