You know it kind of ticks me off they bulldozed Meigs Field. I remember landing and taking off there in Flight Simulator 2000 when I was just a wee lad.
I hoped to visit it someday and gawk at that awesome black cube of a control tower.

My Dream City...
The view of the city Skyline from Adler Planetarium is the BEST view of any city's skyscrapers. You will forget New York's Manhatten after watching it.
Best places to visit: Magnificient Mile, Millenium Park, Navy pier, Wacker Drive, Clark Street, Soldier Field Stadium area.
One fine day, I'll get settled in the LOOP. :)

The two residences in question were indeed at Lake Point Tower. "Fake Point Tower" makes Harbor Point sound like a cheap knockoff. The design was popular during that time period. It's actually a very nice building. Both buildings were originally east of Lake Shore Drive before it was rerouted.

Construction ceased in mid-2008 because of difficulty the developer had in securing financing. At least one contractor has filed leans against the building which stands at 26-floors.

I did the best I could on the boundaries of Pocket Town. This neighborhood doesn't appear on any maps (until now).
