As I remember, the height limit was a major setback, and the recession was the death blow. I am hazier on this, but IIRC the previous mayor was pushing this tower when the time wasn't exactly right for it.
The tower can (and most likely will) eventually be built around the height limit for the area, which IIRC is indeed around 800'. The garage that is currently onsite is city-owned, closed, in disrepair, and making no money. It will be developed eventually.
Here is a great (and very large) chart of suggested height limits around the city.
