And I agree on the size. This location will be in-demand for *literally* centuries. Chicago and the metro area will only keep growing in size and this spot is accessible to roughly 9 million people via a ~90 minute (max) commute. This could have been a 1,200 footer easily.
I agree and the great plains could handle a giant buldge in the crust of the earth that enters into low earth orbit and houses all of humanity. Why haven't they built it yet???!?!?
