The space is large enough for the tower, but there wouldn’t be any space around it for preparation area. Comcast has the future JFK Plaza to prepare and store materials, this property you would keep more off site.

The proper height for this lot is something that is just as tall as its neighbors or maybe a bit taller, so it will create wall effect when you look down west market. I think a more appropriate place for a taller skyscraper is west of Comcast or Market East. Everyone talks about gaps, how seat would it be if City hall was out gap, dead center.
