Exactly. This is the vision, not the final product.
Whatever we see today, even for just the arena and stadium will be concept more than final design. As for the other surrounding buildings, those will almost certainly be "built to suit" for whoever builds there.
Look at the East Village rendering from 2009...
It's about helping people visualize what's possible, so that they can build what actually works for the site.
