I believe from the context that it is general proportion.  It cant be literal shape, they arent literal Cubes since the outer edges of each level is a circle.  I think he was addressing the fact that many people were picturing something very tall and narrow, as is more typical for a "spire", wheras the novel describes these as being equally wide as they are tall.

			They are cubes.  The circle is within the cube, and the excess space is where things like the ventilation tunnels go.
