I don't think it's any particular problem with 300 N Lasalle. They've been upgrading many of their offices. In London they just announced they're leaving the Gherkin after 15 years, which is only a bit more than the time they were in 300 N Lasalle (will end up at about 14 years by the time they move in 2023). the firm just has a lot more money than when they signed the lease in 2007 (i.e. profits per partner are higher by a factor of 2.5).

The stacking plan shows 38-39 as mechanical:

If you're willing to trust the pixels on that plan, 50 is 20% taller than lower floors, and 49 and 51 are both 10% taller. (there are also clearly some taller floors at the top for Salesforce).
Also worth noting that this plan is clearly from before K&E's lease, since it marks half the building as available (it's dated 2/2020). They took, reportedly, 600k sqft, which would be 23-24 floors given that the website reports 25-26k sqft per floor. That would probably imply they're taking 26-50 or 28/29-54 (recall the two mechanical floors on 38-39). If the latter, 50 and 51 would be natural conference floors, since there's a terrace on 51. So then all that's available to rent is 26-28 or 51-54. (also obviously possible their floors aren't contiguous, with the staff at the bottom and a gap in the middle; they did that at 300 N Lasalle).
