They've offset each of the two "towers" halfway up, creating an interesting appearance that for many will make up for the lack of the connection across the upper floors, though I know it's a disappointment. The podium is now charcoal brick instead of precast but otherwise looks quite similar to what was shown in planning documents. The towers appear to be more window-wall than what was shown (before it was precast-clad) which concerns me because it means they will have to use more spandrel glass to meet local code. However, there is framing around the balconies that will create a visual motif around the towers.
I'll snap a photo next time I walk past!
