There is a number of high-rise buildings in the neighbourhood, the tallest of which is the 180 m tall office tower in the HKCEC complex right in front of the site.
Furthermore, all air-conditioning ducting, electrical trunking and piping gathered inside the core area have to be squeezed into a very narrow and congested corridor ceiling void.
As the building is situated opposite to the HKCEC, the only way to get more sea view for the building and not to be obstructed by the neighbouring high-rise buildings is to build it tall enough.

What the entire second paragraph seemed to suggest, though, was that the intention of the protestors were not merely to continue “action,” but to breach police defences.
Indeed, the decision for the protestors to take Hung Hing Road to the initial confrontation was fated to play well to police hands: the HKCEC can be easily seen from the road, and media reports have been raving about how the police managed to stop the protestors just “hundreds of metres” from the HKCEC.
I'm sure had they chosen an inland route, they could've easily spun the whole thing into a police crackdown when the HKCEC was nowhere in sight.
