“Let me be represented as one who trusts his senses, who thinks he knows the things he sees and feels, and entertains no doubts of their existence.” -- Bishop Berkeley
Your post left me with the suspicion that something else was at play.
It turns out that following the completion of the Tour Montparnasse building in Paris in 1972, "Its simple architecture, gigantic proportions and monolithic appearance have been often criticised for being out of place in Paris's urban landscape and, as a result, two years after its completion, the construction of skyscrapers in the city centre was banned."
My understanding is that similar height constraints exist in other cities. For instance, in Washington DC no building is allowed to be taller than the statue of Freedom on top of the Capitol Building.
In Jerusalem the story is that no buildings are allowed to be taller than 10 stories (there are a few exceptions).
And to bring this full circle, "In Paris Gustav Eifel got himself into a lot of trouble when he built the tower because it was taller than the Notre Dame cathedral."
