Twin towers (although 429 ft isn't super tower-y, although in this location it probably stands out more than it would otherwise) might be cool, and although SF technically doesn't have any true twin towers, there are quite a few
almost twin towers, where two towers are nearly identical aside from slight variation in height and orientation. As you can see, there's already quite a bit of partial duplication going on.
Some examples:
One Rincon Hill
Market Center
Embarcadero Center (this one could actually be considered two sets of twin towers)
One Market Plaza
LUMINA
The Infinity
