Once again, this is a ⅓ residential building, not completely office like the BOC. Perhaps a better analogy is the John Hancock in Chicago (although that's rental I believe) which does not light the external skeleton.
It might be possible to design lighting of structural elements right outside peoples' windows that they wouldn't object to but there's also the ongoing cost of keeping it lit to be born by the HOA.
I expect the lighting to remain on parts of the building that are limited and inoffensive: The base and crown.
