Could be for balancing, and that seems the likely reason. However, you are missing the point. The island is where it always was. The deck was extended and so it looks like it is in the middle. The position of the island has not changed.I don't think IN asked for space!! I think they built that space to balance the AC so that i does not sink, they made the flight deck much bigger than it was before so they had to somehow balance it hence the extra space on the other side.
Regarding that tower i dont know why built it for!! They could easily install radars in island itself. But i think it also helps to keep AC floats since it was built in very end of AC.
I don't know about the tower, but I guess they felt in necessary. I wonder if someone can explain.
