What do you mean? Only the Coach Tower was shortened.

The North Tower got a height boost and is now 1,337ft (formerly 1,292ft).
The residential tower is about 800ft.
And the mixed-used tower will be 1020ft+.

Remeber this is just Phase 1, many more (supertall) towers will follow.

So it's all good.
