You are not wrong my friend. The city will never have as many tall buildings like NYC

[@daniedanguilan3860]

it's because the Alderman is being paid under the table by those who oppose the construction. Allegedly

[@chisoxwin82]

@@daniedanguilan3860 reason for that being because the alderman rely on most of they’re funds under federal funding and they always have zoning issues and mainly because they can’t afford the infrastructure redevelopment designs and part of it has to do with property taxes, hence the reason why Amazon declined to build in Chicago.

[@robertm.serrato258]

@@chisoxwin82 who said anything about NY??? Come on! Chicago skyline is second to none including NY. NY, has bigger issues than tall buildings starting with the amount of garbage through out the city. As a proud Chicagoan, Chicago’s skyline is continuing to grow with mega developments like the 78, Lincoln Yards, Brownzville project, The Obama presidential center, Ballys’s Casino, the list go’s on and on. These developments are not just hopes/dreams there approved and some have already broken ground. These Mega developments will have a tremendous positive impact on the great City of Chicago!

[@-Legacy]

Probably never

[@Chosen1Crown]

@Cadillac Kadafi unfortunately this one appears to be cancelled for all intents and purposes. There was a firsthand account of someone who attended a PR event with the following intel: “I have some bad news with regards to Tribune Tower East. I went to a networking event at the Tribune Tower last night. It included a tour of the new residences and amenity spaces (unbelievably cool btw). The tour was led by Lee Golub himself. He leads Golub’s US division and Golub is part of the development team for both phases of the Tribune Tower. He was telling a bunch of stories and eventually started talking about the 1422′ Phase 2 Tower. According to him the tower is definitely not happening and they never considered it a serious proposal in the first place. They just wanted something to show as part of the proposal for phase 1. He considered the tower way too tall and grand and that it never made economic sense. Something will happen there someday but it won’t be nearly so tall.”

[@TheOldTapeArchive]

At the rate businesses are leaving Chicago, on top of post-Covid remote working and crime all over the place, I don't see the Chicago's skyline changing much in the coming decade. NOBODY wants to work law enforcement in the city....and retirements and resignations are far outnumbered the supply of new officers. The city is in big trouble. Who would build a super tall in that environment?

[@Jeschitown]

You do know that Chicago has led the nation in corporate relocation for about a decade now right? Have you seen the building book Chicago is going thru at the moment? Lol

[@TheOldTapeArchive]

@@Jeschitown I read the article citing those CoStar stats...including this pile of jibberish: "Today, Chicago is also seen as a role model for equitable recovery and economic growth. Our commitment to drive sustainable, inclusive growth in order to realize healthier communities and improve the livelihoods of all Chicago residents - especially those in historically underserved neighborhoods - is significant". Companies with only 20 employees are included in the study. Those relocations added 59K jobs, but still the city lost 45K residents. Those relocation numbers are in the rear view mirror. As stated, the city is in the EARLY throes of a collapse. Citadel, Boeing, and most recently McDonald's put out a statements about the unsustainability of the crime problem...with the former 2 pulling out. When police cease even chasing criminals, and the officers risk being sued and their every action is scrutinized by COPA, you get what you have now: it can't even round up half of the needed police recruits. Barring a change of direction, the city is in big trouble. Corporate HQ nameplates are largely irrelevant...but even those numbers will eventually decline.

Google has just bought the Thompson Center and will completely renovate the building. There will not be any new tall skyscraper being built on the site. The Tompson Center is sticking around and will be a new hub for Google.

Talk about cathedral ceilings! 😳🧐 That makes each story 13.5m high, or for those Chicagoans, that's about a 45ft floorplan/floor, from floor to ceiling!

Unpopular Opinion 😲: Regardless of pending developments. Chicago as a whole is extremely boring and mediocre compared to NY/LA. Especially outside of the downtown core. All of the outside areas(including the suburbs) feel “dated”. The old areas throughout the city lack the character/charm that NY has. Don’t even get me started on the brutal winters and ugly cityscape that LA annihilates in comparison. In addition to the ridiculous taxes, underdeveloped neighborhoods stemming from redlining, racial Inquiry, crime, etc. Toronto is truly the next best thing in terms of a 21st century Lakeside metropolis. Not Chicago.

[@jeffburdick869]

oooooof. First of all, Chicago's taxes are less than la's. Where to start. Boring how? Have you seen LA' downtown? Its embarrassing. Yeah, "dated." its called history. Much of Chicago is beautiful old charming buildings from the turn of the previous century. Are you honestly suggesting that the city scape of a hodge podge of ugly slumburbs even compares to that of one of the World Class cities? You're just getting silly...and obviously trolling.

I agree!!! Finally!!! I’m from California when I moved to Chicago I couldn’t believe how ran down it was outside of downtown. People from Chicago brag about their skyline so much but don’t see what’s around it outside of it! Lmao! At least in LA or San Francisco there is many beautiful clean parts! Just as there is bad. Places that are welcoming unlike Chicago. Where only downtown ask lake front areas are the only inviting areas of the city. Then I moved out to the suburbs into Cicero. Even more boring.
