  1. Many people think the famous Trump Tower in New York is Trump's tallest property and building. However, the 664-foot-tall Trump Tower in New York pales in comparison to the 1,388-foot-tall Trump Tower in Chicago, which is Trump's tallest structure that he owns.

  2. It’s a beautiful building and the people that work there are professionals. Stopped in there around 2014 with my son to use the bathroom, told my son they probably won’t let us in because we were all dirty and sweaty. It was summertime. We were at Navy pier. Much to our surprise, they let us into the washrooms we were finished in the washrooms were beautiful. I have to tell you when we were finished the manager of the bar. A female gave us each a bottle of water and was so polite. I told my son that’s good service that comes from the top down, Trump must be a pretty good guy. The politics I had are as good as their managers that vote for Trump.

  3. Great video 😊👍🏼👍🏼
    3:23 – – burj kalifa info
    3:34 – – purchased Chicago Sun-Times building for $73 million
    3:50 – – demo + construct = $650m loan from Deutsche Bank + 3 hedge funds.
    4:47 – – James McCue Construction – concrete subcontractor
    4:56 – – a traditional “iron work” structure (does he mean steel?)
    5:00 – – (?) – – would have required a footprint too large for the property size?
    Q: Why would property size have to change b/c of steel (vs concrete)?
    5:30 – – $130m allocated to concrete (of $600m budget)
    ($470 million for the rest of the project)
    6:07 – – Chicago spire (failing due to financial issues r/t the Great Recession)
