Right now though, I'm happy top see Brooklyn get a supertall, and maybe some more in the future.

Well, as we are currently seeing, there are taller buildiings being built in neighborhoods that haven't seen them (a 30-story building is pretty tall in neighborhoods that don't have skyscrapers). One of the things De Blasio insisted in his push to allow developers to build more housing is people will have to accept taller buildings.
