Super excited for this, Seattle already has one of the nation's most beautiful and iconic skylines, and this will only help that.

Question- not to bring everyone down, but maybe the local Seattleites on here can confirm or deny this...which I believe I read somewhere a while back, but cannot be sure if I'm correct:

Isn't it true that after the Columbia Center was completed in 1985, that new legislation was put in place putting new limits on the size of buildings in downtown Seattle, effectively preventing a tower as tall or taller than Columbia from ever being built in the future? I'm wondering, but I hope that's not the case. I'd love to see a 1,000-footer in Seattle's future.
