Yes it would have been perfect for a supertall since it is zoned for one up to 1,010 feet or even taller since One Brickell was approved for 1,040 feet recently.
The whole MET Miami project was nearly destroyed by the 2008 recession and they had to scale back projects including the MET 3 tower which would have been the tallest tower in Miami back then @ 828 FT. | 252 meters:
The MET project before the recession & MET Square wasn't even supposed to have a condo tower over it. It is the low rise building with the funky roof.

By the way this 1.25 acre green lot that faces the Miami River & is across the MET Square site sold for $125 Million this past year:
