That's good enough for me. That would make three towers in the ~700' range.
Having three towers in that height range (as long as they are fairly close together) give a skyline a nice symmetry as other towers seem to cascade away from the peaks. I think that makes for a much prettier skyline than a huge mass of towers that cover each other up. The skylines of Pittsburgh and Minneapolis have this kind of symmetry depending on the viewing angle. Those are two of my favorite U.S. skylines.
