If they were going to such lengths, how much extra effort would it have been to create a noticeably different tower instead of another twin?

When Tricar announced the second tower, they explained it would be redesigned because they were switching to condos instead of rental units as previously planned. There are less units because they made each unit larger than if it was a rental. It would have probably been rather difficult to clone the building on the outside while the inside is quite different. Window/door/balcony placement would be difficult to line up with the first tower.
Edit: Snark beat me by 1 minute to that explanation.
