Again, going back to the original question, in the last 20 years. Only Millenium Center, River East Center, and Chicago Place (barely) fit under those definitions. Almost all condo towers built in Chicago now have balconies. The buildings of high modernism in Chicago probably only had balconies about 50% of the time, but now almost all of them do. In either case, there are just as many buildings with balconies here as there are in Miami. Especially when you take into account all the north lakeshore buildings like those in LP and Edgewater.

The point of the question is not to create a comprehensive list of every condo tower without balconies in Chicago, but to point out that balconies are a nearly universal feature in modern condo developments.

Another good point is, does Marina City belong in Miami because its covered in balconies? No.
