For those that have enjoyed my digging on the Chicago WTC and Schaumburg Planet, here's another abortive attempt at the world's tallest building. This was a very secretive project. The only way I found out this much was by following a hunch on a single sentence buried in a long article on the WTC, which compared to this was a piece of cake to research.
There remains little to no information on this tower, which was to be 109 stories tall and house 6,000,000 square feet of space. No height is mentioned, but it would likely have been the tallest given the size.
There is no public name for the tower, it was and will always be known as Project D.

Those were the only articles I found after exhaustive searching, so here's something else cool that kept coming up in my searches.
