Developing Quantum Shore and The 78

@landon20s I don’t think IL was never a contender for the AI / Hyperscale projects you’re referencing due to concerns around BIPA. Only storage and colocation.

I recently toured the construction of apartments at 400 Lake Shore Drive with HIRE360 & Related Midwest—one of Chicago’s largest construction sites—and saw opportunity in action.

Because of our 80/20 housing law, this project will bring 100+ affordable units downtown AND open doors to diverse talent in the trades. This is WHY we do what we do.

Winners do the work!

Most important Quantum company you’ve never heard of…yet.

@nickgerli1 Great thread. Thanks

You’d need massive subsidies to account for the structural premium so the development rights would have negative value. Cap the Kennedy (just open space decked over the highway) was more straightforward because you could theoretically capture some value of the park in the surrounding buildings but even that was too complicated to pull off.

@rustbeltkid1 No 2 line pass and no neutral zone trap. Crease violations becoming more offensive friendly. Two of the biggest improvements imo for making the game engaging. But some of those 90s playoff series with Wings / Devils / Avs / Hawks were incredible.

For decades, America's industrial might was forged at the U.S. Steel South Works site in Chicago.

Today, steel beams are rising once again at the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park, where PsiQuantum will deploy America's first utility-scale quantum computer.

A full-circle moment for South Chicago—forged in steel and made possible by the world-changing promise of quantum technology.

Time to build really big quantum computers. Five hundred tons of steel up in six days. Cryoplant delivery date breathing down our neck. Grateful to the many hundreds of people locked in to this mission

@isaacfrench_ Awesome project. Thanks for sharing. If only I knew about it when my son was in his train phase!

Couple of counterpoints, although I don’t entirely disagree with your larger thesis.

I underappreciated the global audience for the “Dick Wolf” shows. Chicago Fire, Med, PD. Mostly because I don’t ever watch them. They’ve replaced the movies in a lot of ways.

The Cubs aren’t the Bulls but the single Cubs parade was 7th largest peaceful gathering in human history. Hard to argue there’s a decline in relevance. Teams are just bad.

The population story is nuanced. Chicago has exploded in growth if you look at downtown. And the influx of young, educated residents is still accelerating. Losing population is never good but it’s not uniform.
