2,000 ft of awesome HD coming to Chicago?

I think they've got the name all wrong, but the new 2,000 foot tall "Tall Tower" might take out the CN Tower
as the tallest. Actually, there is no name yet but the tower is proposed in Chicago and if built, will be designed by architect Cesar Nelli. Personally, I'd call it the "Chicago High-High-Def" tower, but that's just me.

The proposed monstrosity project is geared for local broadcasters to attach their digital broadcasting equipment
to spread the high-def goodness as far as possible. After moving to higher ground, but five miles farther from my local broadcasters, I can personally vouch for the "higher is better" idea.

Residents are in an uproar over the proposal, but we think they would change their tune if we pulled their cable television source and provided them with OTA tuners. Anyone up for a trip to the Windy City to find out?
