^ You'd think it was Fordham Spire, not a PoMo 1990esque LaGrange building.

Tom In Chicago · #**186** Posted **Sep 1, 2006, 3:48 PM**

^Yeah. . . but at least they're confining it to the land of PoMo buildings. . . should compliment Park Tower well enough. . .

I was recently sharing with some of the California forumers that there's so many projects going up in this city, that it's difficult to keep up or keep track of them all. (Or at least for us newcomers)

This is a pretty sophisticated design.

Great to hear it's getting underway.

Thanks Shawn. Words cannot possibly express how much i'm loving Chicago.

This city is absolutely wonderful. The transportation, performings arts, the waterfront, the diversity, to say nothing of all the lofty additions under construction.

one of the best things about this is location. it's adding bulk to that area of the skyline where it needs to be thicker

jcchii · #**195** Posted **Sep 2, 2006, 1:40 AM**

sorry, I forgot to add creatures
