This project should have been much more massive given the location and transportation options in the area.
Unfortunately this seems to be a trend right now with Wolf Point South lopping 138′ off its zoning height, One Chicago dropping 15′ below supertall status, ditto 400 N Lakeshore only more. I know it’s economics, but it’s also sad that this city, known for it’s architecture, keeps getting developers who dumb down their projects based on short term economic conditions. Thankfully Vista at least is topped off and represents us well.
