It's clean and refined and meets the needs of future tenants. The ultimate goal with any tower is to... attract the tenants and retain them. Towers are always competing with their surroundings. Competition and trends will dictate designs, at least with office but also extended towards some residential.

Residential tends to have that high demand attribute in which in some locations, you could build a brown turd facade of a building and folks will still buy or rent but with office, functionality, amenities and common space access are important with todays tenants; and sometimes, to the dismay of aesthetic or architecture lovers, may not meet their standards but it will for the tenants, which is how this ultimately will rise. Without the clients or tenants, this might as well be a hole in the ground. With a 51 percent stake via Citadel, the mind was likely made up.
