Related is being lame. Period. They need to cut that shit out and let a local developer do right by this prime real estate. I’m not even that big on supertalls, but to go from the Spire to this crap is a big let down!

Why is it crap? Because it's not tall? And today we have more money? Huh?
There will always be different sides/opinions and I respect that. But to say because it's a "prominent" location and therefore needs to be tall is, well, not the same opinion as everyone here. I will agree that it IS a prominent location and whatever is built there deserves to have good design, materials and execution. And I think this has that chance.
Has to be tall?? Silliness.
