Being primarily office towers, it's not likely there would be a megatall. The megatall towers are usually mixed-use, with office, hotel, and residential uses. It would be nice to get one, but they would have to shift what these towers are.
Now there has been a lot of development to keep track of, and a lot for us to absorb. This development is expected to take shape over 2 decades, 1 less than the Hudson Yards redevelopment. So for any of those NIMBYs concerned with a "flooding" of office space, this will come later, and it won't all be built at once.
As far as the heights listed, those are just illustrative of the scale, and even then, just to the highest occupied floor. The buildings haven't been designed, and the developer of some sites is yet to be determined. We just know what will be built, and where.
There is a huge amount to read up on, but I've taken some of the info and some graphics to post here for reference...
