Rich and poor should absolutely mix, but what makes this interesting is the fact that we're taking about the 0.5%'ers here, not just the "rich". Ferrari 358 toy cars gliding by people that have difficulties in scraping two fivers for a bus pass.
While we're fine with this - that 0.5%er tends to seek and demand the best. 50% of the West building will have panoramic views of this Soviet tenemant. I would expect pricing to reflect this.
You comment about the number of units to move in the $1M+ range is interesting - It'll be interesting to see how many go to overseas buyers - that market is only so large. I expect a fair number of adjoining units will be bought and merged to form "mega units" so the number of buyers needed may be less than thought.
