Sure, we can meet up some time! I'm pretty civil, and you can show me the parts of the city you like and I can show you the parts that I like. PM me if you want--I freelance so my schedule's pretty open.

It may reach sunlight to the streets, but at the end we all know NYC has better architecture. Everybody knows that NYC is great for many things but some people does not want to see the reality.

Last warning before I shut the thread down: There's still too many bickering posts going on. Keep completely on topic, and don't post jabs and attacks folks, or the thread will be shut down and I'll frankly just keep all topics related to NYC and Chicago on hold for a while since it's overcooked anyway.

CHILL.

Thank you

This is why a lot of people cant stand listening to New Yorkers talk. They cant stand to be second at anything. Chicago is the leader in U.S architecture. In the past, NYC may have been on top, but in the present and future Chicago is leading the way .
