Could be, but for other reasons. The station itself doesn't have to be completed before work begins on the tower - if its built in current form at all. My only problem with the 7 line extension is that they were supposed to build a station below Related's 42nd Street tower (now under construction) and everyone backed away from that. I think they even backed away from a compromised plan, in which they were just going to build the "shell", and complete the station later.
