The main reason for the tower height reduction is due to 1) the absence of the observation deck [[dropping it from 912’ to ~830’ range), and 2) the inability of the developers to attract two hotel brands [[and investors in said hotels) to occupy the tower. There were supposed to be two high end hotels in the original proposal. Now there is one. Subtract one of the two hotels from the tower, and that’s why the height reduction went from ~830’ to 680’.
