I think it has a better chance of keeping that height than many have suggested.
First it's gonna be a big investment like probably close to the $900 million cost for Vista.
Secondly it's got a lot of local clout. The developer JDL is local and in fact the President is planning on living 3 blocks away at no. 9 Walton in Hopkin's ward and he currently lives 3 blocks away in the Waldorf in Reilly's ward. Both architecture firms Goettsch and HPA are local and I assume have a few employees living in close proximity. And Holy Name Cathedral is also on board.
