According to defense-92.fr, this is canceled for good.

Never mind, there will be something else on that lot. Saint-Gobain that's been in a building (les Miroirs) right across the boulevard wants it to build a new tower for themselves. Their project will be smaller - roughly 30-story, between 120 and 150 m (400 and 500 feet) - which means it won't significantly impact the skyline, but again to me, the most important is just to consolidate tall walls along the boulevard.

Some properly noticed that Saint-Gobain, coincidentally a corporation specialized in building materials, has a convincing experience in designing glass. They were responsible for the materials of the Louvre pyramid built 25 years ago, for instance. So quality materials expected for their own new home. I think, or say hope this will turn into something better than anything Generali could have built on a short budget.
