Hopefully the market improves because if the Manhattan luxury market is any indication, the slow down (and in other metros with ultra-luxury), I'd imagine given the exclusive nature of Tribune, with its apartment and condo functionality... it would suck if its downsized.
Maybe on that development, its best if they really wait. Q4 2021 would be optimistic, but we also have this Fall coming up, and the uncertainty that awaits.
I'd hate to see a down sizing occur, so if 2021/2022 is not realistic, I wonder how long they would be willing to wait. Either that or change the functionality up/design modifications to not rely so much on that niche/exclusive market.
Or they could just take the risk, and build it at the end of 2021 in hopes that the market will be ripe when its finished in like 3-4 years.

Correct, I think 2021/2022 was the timeframe we were given.
And yea, the design of that building is pretty amazing, I wouldn't be
too upset if it got downsized to 1250 something but obviously its current height (or even topping Sears) would be way better.
I guess if that falls through the Thompson Center, if redeveloped could yield a really tall building?

Airports and the FAA likely ruin the prospect of a 400+ meter building for a lot of US cities honestly. Miami never follows through with its supertalls though, let alone a 400+.
