I.e. to make the building taller with the existing FSR, the useable space on the lower floorplates would have to get smaller than what's currently proposed:

There's a big square "MECH" space between the elevator banks on each floor that takes up a lot of room.

Although it is supposed to have a 20,000 sq ft floorplate, I'm also surprised that each bank of elevators has 8 elevators.
TD Tower (16,000 sq ft floorplate) has 6 per bank.

I'm also curious as to why Floor 17 has access to both the lowrise bank and the highrise bank of elevators?
