a real project? donald, you must be joking, just because it is a breathtaking design, the chicago trump tower is uninspired and boring, maybe the don is a tad bit jealous that someone is stealing his thunder. remember donald, nobody asked you to come to chicago, did you really think they would let you become the top dog? i hope that the spire, when viewed from the lake, completely blocks out the trump tower. go fordham go!]]>Dec 18th 2005 6:02PMhttp://www.luxist.com/2005/07/27/is-the-fordham-spire-necessary/http://www.luxist.com/2005/07/27/is-the-fordham-spire-necessary/deidre...mr. frootis is absolutely correct. two phrases from popular culture:
"perception is reality" and "if you build it, they will come". it could very well become the defining piece of not only the chicago skyline, but of architecture in the united states. across many industries, it could serve as a source of momentum and confidence in chicago.

When cultured people think of Chicago, they think of the apex of modern architecture. Santiago Calatrava is a genius with a sense of history and civic proportion. This combination will make the Fordam Spire extremely attractive to those who want luxury real estate in Chicago.

Of course Donald Trump, a low class casino owner, is criticizing this stunning visionary piece of architecture.

It is spun the wrong way.
We have to change it to "right-hand" thread.
Please! For the love of GOD and America!!!
RIGHT-HAND ie. CLOCKWISE
It only makes sense.]]>Dec 18th 2005 6:02PMhttp://www.luxist.com/2005/07/27/is-the-fordham-spire-necessary/http://www.luxist.com/2005/07/27/is-the-fordham-spire-necessary/
