I'll take a good design over an extra 100 feet any day. All things being equal, though, the taller the better. For 2020, I hope we see Tribune Tower get moving and that 400 N LSD comes back with a single supertall of comparable quality design to the previous twin tower proposal.
I'll serve as the Debbie Downer here - unf Tribune isn't currently expected to get going to get going until 2022

If approved by the city, the mixed-use supertall could begin construction in 2022. Upon its completion, Tribune Tower East will claim the title of Chicago’s second tallest building—eclipsing both nearby Trump Tower and the under-construction Vista Tower. The project will rise just 30 feet shy of the Willis (formerly Sears) Tower.
