The hotel and apartment components are gone, at least for the time being. He seems to have reallocated those parts of the building to office space - greatly expanding the total office SF in the tower (330,000 SF).
I believe Tom is contemplating the total number of condo units as well as the possibility of even more office space.
As for the height of the building, I would be surprised if it shortened. Remember, the average floor-to-floor ratio is usually larger in office buildings than in hotel/apartment/condo buildings. Thus, if he keeps the tower at 47 stories and apportions more space to offices, then we may be looking at an even taller building than the one currently being proposed.
