Keep it as a museum. Not all buildings have to be useful. It could be used as a pet storage place.
Within the context of a city seeking to revitalize a former industrial site that fell into disuse, tall buildings are a perfectly acceptable way of creating "somewhere" out of "nowhere" ... surely?
Interesting analysis.
My own grounds for disliking it isn't the fact that the towers are 9x higher than the heritage district, but are 5x higher than the *new* low-midrise neighborhood the city wants to build here and in the West Donlands. It seems teriffically inconsistent to have these sticking up out of nowhere.
My grounds for liking it is that I like tall pointy objects. (Thus I'm on this forum.)
