It's certainly better than it was, but depending on what you mean by "downtown" there are certainly quite a lot remaining to be built on.
A block north of that site, for example. A block west. Two blocks north. A block southwest. Two blocks west. Three blocks west. State and Erie. Two blocks northwest. The lot behind the YMCA. The lot next to the YMCA. The lots on either side of VanBuren at Wabash. Lots at Illinois and St. Clair and Illinois and Columbus and Illinois and Park. At Grand and Fairbanks. Wacker and Vanburen. Not to mention at least a half dozen lots west of Orleans in River North.
But, yeah, that list used to be probably three times as long, so it's definitely an improvement.
