You didn't specify which tower might not get built but based on the pictures, i'm assuming the shorter one might not.

The interesting thing about this tower (for us skyscraper nerds anyways) is that it is the exact same height that Petro-Can was for a long time (689 feet). It is only recently that someone changed the height so Petro-Can is now slightly over 700 feet. I expect some slick salesman from Calgary talked some official skyscraper committee member somewhere to include the mechanical penthouse so Calgary can say it has a 700 footer!
