The skyline 2010 - 2015 - 2020

This thread is just a speculative project....a thought experiment if you will on how extensive the Chicago skyline will be in 2010, 2015, 2020. Please take the time to give thoughts on all three dates, though I know going out that far is dangerous and often just fanciful.

How do you guys see this thing playing out. Emporis currently has listed highrises as follows:
1,045 completed
82 proposed
41 approved
29 under construction

If all of this got bulit, which prob won't happen that would give us approx 1200 highrise by 2010 or so....is this accurate, too high, too low

Where do you see more development ( west , south)?
Do you see the "thickening" of the skyline ie making it more than one or two layers thick as it is along N. LSD

what about 2015

and 2020?

get to work>
