Maybe there’s hope for the Second Sun after all. Anglo Irish Bank has filed a $77 million foreclosure suit against the Chicago Spire, “likely certifying the death of the ballyhooed project,” in the words of Crain’s Chicago Business. Hat tip to Curbed for a summary of the firewalled article.
The Spire was stillborn.

I’ve heard that the whole time. BTW is that some kind of cable stayed bridge in the rendering at the river and LSD?
