Big Developments on the Riverfront

No, not the St. Johns River either - the Chicago River. Came across pictures of the Sun Times building demolition - equipollent with the Equitable building as one of Chicago's ulgiest - and its Trump replacement.

Whenever I crossed the Michigan Ave. bridge, I'd see the barge-like Sun Times sitting there in the shadow of the Wrigley complex, the Wendella docks below it, and the same thought would recur that preoccupies me when driving in the suburbs: What inspired such wretched designs between the 1950s and 80s? Yes, the notion of form following function was the hot trend, but was everyone blind?

If anyone's seen mockups of the new skyline with the Trump tower in it (like they've done in New York with the WTC replacement), I'd like to take a look.
