You're right. For some reason I was imagining it would be farther to the left. Judging by how wide the hotel will be north to south, it should easily fill in that gap to a height that is at least equal to One Congress Plaza (the stair stepped building).
I'm really hoping that once they build the new residential project at Lamar Plaza that it'll have a nice view of downtown from the parking garage, although, it'll probably be in back since they'll want to capitalize on the view. There's a nice view along Lamar since the skyline sort of stretches out in front of you from buildings way up in West Campus all the way down to the river and over to the Rainey Street/Waterfront District. Pretty much all of the new highrise construction planned in downtown/West Campus will be visible from that location. It's too bad the new residential building at Lamar Plaza isn't there already.
