There's nothing official yet. We're just going by rumors post on a blog and the recent revelations of the Nordstrom tower.

My source also confirmed–well, nearly–Gripepad’s report from May 2012 that Vornado is hiring Fifteen Central Park West architect Robert A.M. Stern to design its new condo–”It’s 99% sure”–and added one more tid-bit for now. “They’re going pretty high,” the source says.
Which means war, at least for the Central Park views developers covet along the new Billionaire’s Belt. Until today, Extell (whose plans were first revealed here this week) had the view corridor to itself. Now? Advantage Vornado.

Sounds like it will indeed by higher than the 577 ft, possibly even higher than Stern's 30 Park place. But we don't know what it will be yet.
