I have a GTX 1060 now, but I was thinking of a RTX 2070 , specifically the MSI RTX 2070 Gaming z 8gb . My motherboard is a Gigabyte Z-270 HD3p. Any thoughts if it is a worth upgrading for now or should I wait?

Could use a bit more info before anyone can help you.
What games are you playing?
What resolution are you using?
What CPU do you have?
Why do you feel you need to upgrade?
etc.
Anywho, there are no new GPUs coming till possibly E3. So if you need a new GPU before late June/July, current option are what you need to choose from.

I have the 1070 and while it's enticing to upgrade, I'm waiting for the 3k series Nvidia GPU's which I assume will be on 7nm.
If you're after 1440p 144hz, you might want to look into a 2080 instead of 2070, i have the same setup (1440p, 144hz) with a 2070 and in some games i struggle for 144hz, although i also love my graphics, if you're willing to reduce graphics where needed then the 2070 could be good enough.
I would say wait. See what AMD's budget Navi options bring first. The 2070 is a bit of a stop gap in the current market, since its fairly pricey, but underperformance compared to any 2080 variant.
AMD might not bring out cards much faster than a 2070, but they'll be a hell of a lot cheaper, if nothing else.
I have a 2080ti and it still doesnt come close to being 144 hz average in most AAA games. Will you sit at 144 most of the time ? Sure but not always.
