If it were allowed, San Diego could and would build an 800' tower. Unfortunately there is a 500' FAA cap and from afar, you can see how the skyline is like a plateau, most of the new buildings go right up to the 500' limit.
Diega is a new apartment tower that opened this year. It's over 40 stories, probably close to the 500' cap, I don't know the exact height.
Across the street with the crane another residential tower going up, vacancies remain low across the area.
