Regarding a new tallest for the city (1,600' - 1,700' roof) I wouldn't mind some of those designs ...

Suzhou Zhongnan Center, 729 m / 2,392 ft
Ping An Finance Center, 660 m / 2,165 ft
Goldin Finance 117, 596.5 m / 1,957 ft
Pearl of the North, 568 m / 1,864 ft
Jinan IFC Landmark Tower, 560 m / 1,837 ft
CTF Finance Centre, 530 m / 1,739 ft
China Zun Tower, 528 m / 1,732 ft
Those towers would fit really well in New York, be it Hudson Yards or Midtown East. Classy, elegant and not too crazy (like Shanghai Tower f.e.).
