Even two towers on this site could produce 400 ft or so, more than enough to stand out. Here's a proposal much closer to LaGuardia that's around that height...

It's an irregularly shaped lot, and would likely contain a significant amount of retail on site, with open floorplates. I see at most, two towers given the configuration. It's next to a park, so that could factor in the plans.
