The allowable height along the river, I believe, is 90 feet. After that, they must setback before being able to go up another 90+ feet. This is why the CSC/Silicon Labs buildings stop abruptly at 90 feet fronting Cesar Chavez.
As for the crown, it needs work. People can say that street/ground interaction is most important, and it is to an extent, of course, but there will be a lot of eyes on this thing and from afar. Materials, textures, colors, and designs are important not just at ground level, but all the way up. With every new building and every new design, our architectural style takes a step in a new direction.
