From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Chicago World Trade Center was a proposed 2500 feet supertall skyscraper in Chicago, Illinois. It would have had 210 floors. The building was designed in 1982 by Harry Weese. However, the design was never built.
A shorter, 181 floor, 2300 foot building by the same name was proposed that same year, but like the other proposal, it was also cancelled.
