Maybe from a North American perspective that's tall, but that's pretty average here in China. There are three cable-stayed bridges across the Huangpu River and one across the Yangtze River in Shanghai alone that have similar tower heights (Yangpu Bridge, Xupu Bridge, Minpu Bridge, and Shanghai Yangtze River Bridge).
