In light of the news, I think ardecila's comment is worthy of reposting:

So accurate.
This is disappointing; Gensler is capable of good stuff. The initial design held so much promise. I'm sure value engineering played a role, but I don't think Gensler deserves a pass: it really looks like they just gave up.
