Vertical City of the Americas

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Non-notable project proposal. As one of thousands of such proposals made every year, there is no indication that this proposal will be accepted and proceed to construction. No news items point to this as a notable proposal. When (if) this project goes forward, it will surely be notable as the tallest building, but as a proposal, it is not yet notable.

 * Delete. What I can find on the subject seems to indicate that this proposal is a long-dead idea. If there were notable coverage of the proposal an article might have been called for, but such coverage likely does not exist, as anonymous message board posters seem to indicate that they were under a Non-Disclosure agreement.

 * Delete It's sourced to one website and full of plenty of would-have-beens, but I don't see any indication that even a single step was taken toward the project. If there had been a hearing before a local government agency, that would have been one thing, but it looks like this was an architect's dream about a 170-story building.

 * Delete. I took a look at the only link provided, and what I saw did not surprise me. If you look under "Facts" in the link, all the facts seem to point to the fact that this project has been canceled. For example, it says the building would have included 2.5 million square feet of office space, 700 hotel suites, and 1,000 condo residences. Because of this, I'm pretty sure this project isn't going to go through. The Utahraptor (talk) 00:30, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
