Exactly. Not the visual effect you'd want, of all places, at the WTC site. Besides, they totally shat upon the opportunity to reintegrate some supertalls into the skyline through towers of varied height, just like it was done with the current lineup.

Build em in a denser urban context (as opposed to Foster's proposed open 16 acres of park) and elsewhere, like at the Hudson Yards development. Just not at the WTC.
