Are you not aware of the other smaller towers around it? Have you not noticed the neighbors of the other supertalls going up in the city. It’s a reason they’re called supertalls, and it isn’t because they blen in so neatly heightwise with their neighbors.

The city has enacted new laws regarding anything on the waterfront and in flood prone areas. But there’s a reason why so many buildings on Water Street and that area in general are becoming residential. New buildings are going to go up down there regardless. But I’d rather be 1,000 ft up in a flood.
