San Diego has a beautiful skyline. So having a plateau is not a completely horrible thing.
This building is approved for 847'. But we are just finding out about possible FAA limits. The limit may be around 900', but a building two blocks from this proposal has been found to be a possible aviation obstruction at 555'. So the height limit seems random and ridiculous.
