Oh what could’ve been 🥲

@Directhim They even laid down the foundation no?

@Directhim I'm glad the glass penis isn't defining our skyline

@Directhim 2008 financial crisis happened

@Directhim They can’t even build a stadium, let alone another building. Friends of the park would prevent it etc. 🤦🏼‍♀️

@Directhim Man, I forgot about that project

@Directhim I worked for Beitler Miglin Commercial Real Estate - the developers who teamed up w/the Fordham Company to build the Chicago Spire. I was there in 2008 when they decided not to go through w/ the project. The economy at the time definitely crashed. Overall it was bad timing 🥲

@Directhim We could have had the Spire but then 2008 happened

@Directhim Love how he still calls it Sears Tower

@Directhim If they don't end up building it in NYC, I think it would be great in Chicago. 1,575ft proposed

@Directhim I believe the crater is still there...

@Directhim Oh, your mind is about to be blown... you don't know ... do you. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Illin…

@Directhim Ahhh yes a giant dildo shaped building just what the people want

@Directhim i for one am glad the Spire never happened, it was so ugly

@Directhim That would’ve been insane if they built it

@Directhim Thank god. That is fugly.

@Directhim @amazonmilkfrog As much as a new tallest building in Chicago would be cool I do hate this one design but I'm a bigger fan of harsher edges

@Directhim Looks like the Frank Lloyd wright statue here in scottsdale

@Directhim Commercial Real Estate is Chicago was deliberately destroyed during Covid lockdowns

@Directhim Ya 2008 crash ended that.

@Directhim I believe they finally filled the hole but not with a giant glass penis drill.

@Directhim Writing an alt history novel series where the U.S. recovers faster from the recession and the spire construction resumes.
