If we're lucky, this thing will collapse at the dedication, with Richie and J-Fed inside. Too cynical?

No way! You couldn't pay me to stand on that thing. It's kind of cool, but the height thing just isn't for me.

Be safe y'all.

Will it be inspected by the 19 year old son of some union bigshot?

Not cynical enough. Throw in Stroger and about a dozen alderscum. And the entire Daley and Venecko family.

What third world country won the bid on the equipment?

The aftermarket thing is what bothered me too. That along with the fact of what Daley cronie got this contract? I really would not want to find out the hard way that the city inspectors did not inspect this.

Similar to the Hualapai Tribe Skywalk at the far western end of the Grand Canyon.

The way they photoshopped this picture, I believe that they could have photo shopped Air Force one over New York City.
$343,000 for that shot. If Bush did that stunt Michael Moore would be filming a documentary about it.

No, Walsh Construction will give the job to a "minority" contractor who will fuck it up.

Yeah because the "minority" contractor is really own by her husband, or ran by someone who is not a minority, or just sub'd out again to a majority contractor who fucks it up. DO YOUR RESEARCH. Very few real "minority" companies.

Somehow this whole thing -- glass boxes suspended in space -- is a metaphor for the entire bullshit real estate market that finally collapsed.

Second impression -- something tells me that this is going to be a "nut magnet" on the order of the glassed-in, street-level Channel 7 TV studio. Everyone knows that they had to set barricade posts in the concrete outside after someone drove his car into the place. (I was watching the night it happened "live".)

Something is going to happen here too. It's irresistible to the increasing number of disturbed people.

About 40 seventh-graders from the West Side are going to pack into this thing -- and then one of them will shout "Git it goin'!"

They'll begin to jump up and down in unison -- all of them grinning from ear to ear and pushing and shouting.

Ka-WHOOM! Ka-WHOOM! Ka-WHOOM!

Do I need to go on?
