What are the tallest towers under construction in chicago in 2024-2030

[@bradwooldidge6979]

Why are they so afraid to build taller than the Sears tower?

[@warhero0057]

Right!?

[@donny1960]

Not afraid. It cost money. Office space is abundant. No one is going to put that kind of money in a purely office building. So it has to have many factors playing together to get the right environment to get something that tall. New York can afford to have 1/2 empty Condo towers. Has more appeal to foreign investment. Chicago has always been a more practical builder of buildings.

@@donny1960 I just can not understand . US is the richest economy with many richest people born and raise here . But why they don’t have money to invest megatall large projects just like rich men from China or Saudi Arab

[@donny1960]

@@jennpika6301 There are literally 1000's of tall buildings in USA. We were building them when China just grew Rice and Saudi Arabia was just sand. So not much to understand. The money was and has been invested for almost 150 years. Since the USA invented the Skyscraper. Look At New York. Chicago. Miami. Atlanta. There are 1000 foot buildings everywhere in USA. Also the most and the tallest is not helping China in their Real Estate bust. Many buildings are sitting empty there. And the last point. Super tall Skyscrapers have lost their appeal to investors. Money is in abundance in USA. It just is not being throw at "glamour" projects. Office space is not in demand. Covid has people still working from home. Most tall buildings now are for living, And they are still being built. Look at all the new Super Tall Condos and Apartment buildings in New York. The World has just caught up with USA. That is understandable.

America is actually afraid of the terrorist that attacked New York City on September 11 , 2001 ! They're not trying to Outdo China/ Arabia in Height or Design ! America is just building little simple basic mediocre skyscrapers like the World Trade 1 that was suppose to have been higher but suddenly they reduced the size to 1776 feet along with the Spire or the Spire is what makes it the tallest building in America ! Also the Chicago Tribune was originally suppose to have been taller than the Sears Tower but somehow they agreed to reduce the size of it so they're afraid of something ! Personally, I would Love to see a building surpass the Sears Tower because it's not going to take anything away from the Sears Tower especially if it's built in the right location !

[@lewisgarrison860]

Could I get a shoutout since you used my animation for the entire Tribune section?

[@rickieg9870]

I love Sears… but it’s time to eclipse it. This is the birth place of the skyscraper. Get building.

[@TopSeven-77]

yes

[@r.pres.4121]

Only if economic demand permits it.

[@Zoods_]

New York is mainly the birthplace of skyscrapers, only 11 skyscrapers in history got world's tallest building, New York has 7 of those titles

[@carstarsarstenstesenn]

It would only make sense if we had a population boon. we don't need empty space.

[@cal1535]

I Love that Chicago doesn’t give af about the “worlds tallest” title. Been there, done that

[@BGTuyau]

Uh-Oh! More robot narration. No human being would ever say "eff-tee" for the abbreviation for foot or feet of height.

[@TopSeven-77]

There are many people who want to know how tall a foot is

[@Dandude208]

WTF kind of answer is that.@@TopSeven-77

[@cal1535]

@@Dandude208😂

[@Ejexion]

To whomever it was that did the reading of the script for this video: no one ever pronounces "ft" as "eff tee". It is an abbreviation that is always pronounced "feet". "Eff tee" sounds ridiculous.

[@alexzais1935]

We need something taller than the Sears Tower already. Enough is enough.

[@Gryphind0r]

It will be 20 years before Chicago builds another building 900 ft or taller.

[@Troynjk]

I think there might be some lobbying coming from New York to not allow super talls to be built in Chicago. They want to maintain their status as the city with tallest buildings.

[@lewisgarrison860]

@@Troynjk lol what? Thats not true nor is it possible. People have other things to worry about.

[@Troynjk]

@@lewisgarrison860 you jumped to conclusions without giving any thought to it. Lobbying against super talls in Chicago means that New York maintains its status as the city with most and tallest skyscrapers in US which brings in more tourists every year to the city and raises the property value.

[@noble6882]

​@@TroynjkLOL like the other guy said, I think these Millionaires and billionaires have bigger worries than whether another city get supertall skyscrapers

[@johnl2727]

When you look at all the residential skyscrapers it is amazing the number of wealthy and ultra wealthy people that will be packed into the downtown area.

[@r.pres.4121]

Chicago along with New York City and Los Angeles will only be affordable to the wealthy elite and big time powerbrokers.

[@chesterthawkins7510]

John Hancock is my favorite.

[@Dogsnark]

How tall am I? I’m 6 f-t tall. The synthetic voice needs some help with his measurement units.

[@TopSeven-77]

We've modified this in upcoming videos Thanks for watching the video

[@1975brett]

Does this voice keep saying “ft” because this isn’t an actual person?

[@cal1535]

Tribune East looks like the Ps5

[@thomperry1187]

Cut the FT, feet is short enough.

[@darylmark]

Please tell me this is a SW program reading the text and not a human who doesn't even know that "ft." is an abbreviation for "feet" and not to be pronounced "f, t."

[@Epoch11]

Where are the futuristic looking buildings we were all promised? They seem to just be building tall boxes in Chicago.

[@TopSeven-77]

Hhhhh

the key to investing is takes money to make money, example browns new stadium ill invest 100 million once its finished ill get a interest return on it

[@noble6882]

Thumbs down for the AI voice and the crap information. Only has a few buildings showcased that are "under construction 2024 - 2030" and literally two of them were completed before then and one of them never started and got canceled

[@MarkMonforti]

Ai voice. thumbs down

[@TopSeven-77]

The audio in the new videos has been modified

[@PeeedaPan]

yea this list is totally outdated. Nema phase 2 is not happening and wolf point and One Chicago have already been built. Thumbs down

[@iwouldliketoorderanumber1b79]

Exactly, and 400 lakeshore drive just started prepping for construction and will not be completed in 2024. He just gathered a bunch of random internet information without actually seeing what’s going on with the projects.

[@DINGOS30]

Do u know if Nema phase 2 has been canceled for sure?

[@PeeedaPan]

@@DINGOS30 yes they are selling the lot

[@DINGOS30]

@@PeeedaPan oh I didn't want to see a second identical building there any lol

[@noble6882]

Seriously. It literally says under construction 2024 - 2030 and includes a couple buildings completed before then

[@lesamisdelacuisineprovenca9534]

you can find dozen and dozen skyscrapers like these in China !

[@NedSpindle]

If you don't want your voice to say eff tee just write "feet".
