These things take time, therefore I haven't formed a mindset for this project yet. I've almost ignored it just to avoid getting bummed if it where ever scaled back or cancled. Ever since this news has broken I've tried not to get excited and to look at it as a bonus possibility... rather than an expected addition to our current boom.
Look at how long the Park has been around... Heck it was announced during the previous boom of towers (Hearst, Westin, etc..) and its just now nearing completion. A project of sig's size is bound to run into setbacks.... it could happen... and it might not, but right now the momentum is still in its favor (1yr isn't all that much time for a project of that size to remain in the proposal stage imo). Unfortunantely for us skyscraper and urban groupie's these things take longer then we'd like them too. I'll continue to look at this post objectively and try not to get to excited.... but when/if something firm does happen, boy will I freak out. Hoping for the best.
